It's been a while (about a week actually...) since we had a weekend thread. As the weather seems particularly nice - what's everyone's plans for the weekend?

Weekend
...my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

Playing Rockabilly
what else
We're out in the country on Saturday evening playing at a "Ranch". It will be an outside gig.
Nothing like a few free beers and bit of rockabilly, get paid for it as well.

I shall be doing a bit of spring cleaning, some exercise, and working my way through a few DVDs that I've been putting off for a while for various reasons.
I may also breakout the music toys in order to convince myself I am a talentless git and they need to go on ebay. The pile of two generations old Cisco kit on the floor of my lounge might end up on there as well, and perhaps some of the DVDs I've accumulated over the last 2 years. I need a sort of general clear out really.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment

Bugger all, all weekend I hope. We did very little last weekend and it was ace
Next few are busy so will be good to have a chill out one.
Although, we'll need a trip to the post office tomorrow so I can post off some eBay stuff.Bazza gets caught

thats pretty much what I did last weekend. Listed tonnes of stuff on eBay. It's time consuming but worth it, in the end.Originally posted by doodab View PostI shall be doing a bit of spring cleaning, some exercise, and working my way through a few DVDs that I've been putting off for a while for various reasons.

Yeah, it's good for the soul to declutter now and then. The money is a bonus, although I'm sure I used to give stuff to the charity shop instead of ebay it, perhaps I will do that for stuff that doesn't sell.Originally posted by cailin maith View Postthats pretty much what I did last weekend.

There's a warehouse in Manchester that buys old clothes for £5 for 10 kilos...Originally posted by doodab View PostYeah, it's good for the soul to declutter now and then.

Nope, but that will definitely sell. They might take some of the DVDs though.Originally posted by FiveTimes View PostAre charity shops going to be interested in old Cisco gear ?While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment
