BC Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Yesterday I went down to the Magpie Charity warehouse and donated various items from my uncles cottage. It was great they took everything including 7 new shirts still in their wrappers. As soon as I went into the warehouse I spied a Morris of Glasgow display unit exactly the same as one I already have and in near perfect condition apart from a small scratch which I think I can fix myself after recently having an attempt at fresh polishing. Away I had other things to do but then on the return journey I went in past and bought it for the asking price of £ 250 if they keep it until next Saturday which is the earliest I can manage to collect it. They don't normally store but when she saw £ 250 in used ready notes she agreed The new price I paid for my one was £ 999 and that was 10 years ago so I'm well pleased with this buy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HS. Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Awesome, beer is well cheap, also very tasty!! Where in Poland? heard the beer is good, going to krakow, 4th-10th Dec, hopefully no one ends up in hospital this time, and we're all back in time for the work night out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMB Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 heard the beer is good, going to krakow, 4th-10th Dec, hopefully no one ends up in hospital this time, and we're all back in time for the work night out Look out for nice dark bitters like Lech and Tyskie. And if Krakow is anything like Warszawa, you'll find calling cards littering the streets. Polish women are very pretty mind you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of drink and food to be had at the market, get some "Gluhweins" (Mulled Wine) in you in the day, then Tyskie in the evening!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gav836 Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 Bought a slow cooker with my shopping from ASDA this week, using it for the first time today, turned it on low at 6.30am this morning and its now cooked, means I won't be eating so late when I come home from work in future Also bought a new pair of wellington boots, got fed up with cheaper ones, the last pair lasted 5 full days of use before giving up so trying some of those French things this time!

dalethecaptain Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 (edited) Been back at work for a few weeks now. Came down to Italy in the car with the wife to fill up on Wine (Chianti), Cheese, Salami, and Panettone for Xmas. Just visited a truffle festival this weekend, and ended up spending a lot of euro on fungus, so good it might not make it home! At todays prices, there is about €20k of truffle in this picture!
