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.

I got one free when I joined the Royal Mail stamp club when I was about 7
Want me to take some pictures of it and the stamps to let me know if theyre worth anything?
The album itself doesnt look very old, maybe ten years - but the stamps are uber-old.
The british stamps are really ancient, and theres a "red penny" which I beleive to be old/valuable?

Yeah, they make albums to display them in, among other products.

Certain ones can be very valuable, up to £ m's in some cases. I'd certainly like to see some of this myself...

Stanley Gibbons is a massive stamp company, which holds auctions and owns a rather large shop in the Strand in London. Anything that looks old, or has a printing error of some sort, I'll have it; I don't really collect stamps nowadays, but if I got my hands on anything rare, I'd be very happy.
Yes, it is sad. But I never had much to do when I was younger... =D

"Adobe Photoshop 4.0 Windows/Macintosh" as featured on the spine of the book.
I assume it's related to photoshop 4, not 6.
And no its not a joke about the stamp collection

Just to clarify, this is Photoshop 6 and not 4?

I dont know - they're the propper user manuals so being able to download them would probably condone piracy, blah blah blah.
