* Had a nice email from someone this morning who received their Little Red Book from Amazon yesterday. He ended it by saying: "Next time make it hardback to ensure it will withstand continuous reference and handling."* Yesterday I was searching for some papers in the garage (as you do) and opened up a trunk only to find a huge collection of Spy cartoons I'd forgotten I had. So I spent last night cataloguing them with a view to selling them. There's about 250 altogether so I hope I can get a decent sum for them. I found a dealer in Worthing so we'll see what kind of pittance they offer!
* I shall sadly miss the England v Jamaica game this afternoon as I'm playing golf - fantastic weather here in Kent today so I'm greatly looking forward to it.
You're not a DFL are you Iain?
ReplyDeleteWhat is a DFL? I may regret asking that...
ReplyDeleteDown from Londoner, Living on the Kent coast (Whitstable) we get a lot of DFLs coming down, buying houses and living in them for two days a month.
ReplyDeleteAs unbelievable as it might sound, we kind of hate this.
No, I live here 7 days a week.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear it, but I'm disappointed you didn't know what a DFL was.
ReplyDeleteYou obviously don't live on the coast, or are just sensible enough to stay off the high-street on a Saturday.
No, I live in RTW. But I am familiar with the problems of second home owners from my days in North Norfolk.
ReplyDelete...... or you could of course try selling them individually or in lots on the dreaded ebay.
ReplyDeleteThat's a bit sad - people in Whitstable getting narky!
ReplyDeleteThe ever useful Acronym Finder suggests all sorts of interesting possibilities for DFL, including 'Dictator for Life' and 'Dead F***ing Last'. Take your pick....
ReplyDelete"people in Whitstable getting narky!"
ReplyDeleteI asure you "anonymous", people in Whitstable are always narky.
