"Oxfam (i simply cant belive it)"

Yep oxfam, i had to work there today for 5 hours for D of E. Anyhows one of my jbs was for me and my mate to lob a load of things out. We had to go downstairs for that and blimin heck they had 9 rooms all the size of my lounge filled up with stuff people have doneated and we had to lob a load of stuffaway. There was over 3000 books we had to get rid of we had to use a blimin big dustbin to fit all the stuff in and to make things worse half of the stuff they were lobbing out were actually pretty good, i even managed to scab a few things, like one of those balls with elctricity that when you touch it a electric light goes to your finger. Another was a golf put holder which happens to be rather good. Anyhow we must have lobbed out over a thouand books and loads of bags of cloths andloads of shoes and other stuff. Did you know oxfam lobbed out all this stuff that could easyly be sold and made for a lto of money which can be given to charity. Anyhows sorry for borring you.

The thing about charity shops is. It isn't "cool" to shop their. Even though sometimes there is some really cool stuff there!

i do nothing in the afternoons, so i guess i could go down and help, but i dont want to so never mind...

America wanted the original London bridge, so we sold it to them for truck loads. Then we built a new, better one :D

Wasn't talking to you.

why is it always old people who walk around with oxfam bags, it is prob because they feel that they have wasted their life and they want to meke others better...

Basically the UNI has got a T3 connection wired to every dorm and house. The students come to that desk and register the port in their room and that socket is opened. They plug their Pc in it and get the internet (fast) in their room.

It cost £29 for 10 weeks. Not bad for 400Kb download speeds. All those students and their naughty downloads

You sold the Internet to students? ...

You should have seen if anyone wanted to buy the moon, Eiffel Tower or London Bridge?
