Giving up games, are we? ohmy.gif

BTW, not sure about International, but mailing books in the US of A qualifies for reduced postage. And, don't wait too long if you are shipping the Isles, that 20% VAT may take effect real soon!!! eek2.gif OTOH, 20% of nothing may not be too bad... Thinking.gif

If I had a garage this would be called a Garage Sale!!! Of course now that it's all gone I want it all!  

BTW, all of the old Zork stuff is still playable as Java:

I'm assuming that this website is in the Netherlands; don't know the in's and out's of EU and Shetland Islands copyright law!  They must be out of even the most hard core copyright restrictions?  Here I come international court! Devilish2.gif

I think that helping a charity with the things we don't need anymore is nothing to be sorry about!  Not to cross up threads but how is your foot doing Frances?

Ah, my foot.  Ah, actually double ah!

Ankle is broken but strapped up and I limp along.

My back is now officially done too!  I have to have a big op in Nov/Dec to do spinal fusion from L4 to S1 and put in cages between the vertebrae at L5/S1.  I will be off-life for about 6-8 weeks lying in bed (no sitting) so daytime telly here I come!

I am dreading this and feel sick at the thought.

Thank you for asking, though.

I'm sorry that I've asked a question already asked in another thread; if I wanted more information I should've posted another question there! wallbash.gif At least she could've posted her ankle xrays if I'd posted my query in the tech section of TS! rolleyes.gif No, she has a different insurance system over there and it might be illegal for her to show us her xrays; I didn't ever ask! smile.gif

You never get given your x-rays.  I was barely allowed to see my ct-scan report and had to beg for a copy from my doctor, like a huge favour!  Patient information is about the patient not for the patient!

I collect the Red Rose figurines. I have March and July -- and I have 4 (yes FOUR) turkeys. I'd gladly swap a turkey for something else.

Where have I heard that before? Thinking.gif  Maybe you got a 'turkey,' just be glad it wasn't a 'lemon!' laughhard.gif

I have a Canon Canoscan 8800F scanner for adoption to a good home.

It works fine on Snow Leopard. Won't work on Lion, since it's supported by Rosetta on SL.

It's yours for the cost of shipping. (In the original carton).

I FINALLY got around to installing my Canon Pixma MP560 Photo All-In-1 printer.
I got it with my 2010 27" iMac back in August, 2010.
No one ever accused me of breaking the sound barrier with my speed!

PM me if you are interested.

Jack
