"Cleaning out the loft"

I've spent the day thus far cleaning out my loft which for the most part has been exhausting is there was about 7 tonnes of pure junk there.

It was a little video game nostalgia trip for me too as I found an Amstrad, Commadore 64, Spectrum ZX, Megadrive II and Playstation 1, ooh and broken garden furnature.

The oddest find has to be someone elses stamp collection, a man called Stanley Gibbon's, who presumably lived here once, took it upon himself to hide his stamp collection in the space between the loft and the second floor ceiling - but I got it! To eBay we go...

I've also found manuals for Adobe Photoshop 6.0, Adobe InDesign an a bunch of other Adobe products - anyone want them?

Oh and does an employer legally have to pay you more for working a bank holiday or not? I've been asked to work Monday, see, but I dont know if its financially worth it. £4.50 an hour versus sitting on my ass at home is a no-contest really on a bank holiday.

Yeah i vote in favour of Para changing his name to Del Boy.

Because you flog crap. All the time.

I love you really, 'dox.

'OMG WTF! Y DID MI AUCSHUN NO GET TOP DOLLAH, M8'

Still, I dont see whats valueable about an old bit of paper.

Bet Para is wetting his pants though.

It depends- There are several versions, produced from 1841 to 1877. They're worth anything from 50p to £50,000 depending on condition and edition.
