Stuff for free if you can pick it up. - Page 3

Xytec · 30 October 2009, 12:01

If someone does go and pick up some stuff from Doug, can you ask him to send me my money back please?

Its been 6 months since I sent him it for the A2000 he is now giving away, I think I have waited long enough?

Photon · 04 November 2009, 00:16

I also wonder what happened to this mah-vellous thread

prowler · 04 November 2009, 00:26

Well, all that's holding this thread up is that I'm waiting for the go-ahead from Doog, so that cosmicfrog and myself can visit and pick some stuff up.

chiark · 04 November 2009, 13:57

Am I misreading this: it sounds like Doug is giving away the stuff that Xytec has paid for?

(Doug could very well have forgotten all about the deal with Xytec given what has happened!)

Perhaps Prowler and the Ribbety One could check?

Sorry for the delay Charlie....PM sent.

No Nick....he doesn't want the 2000 anymore.

I'm revising the list as i need to sell some stuff off to pay for the aftermath of a broken cambelt on my car.

DoogUK · 04 November 2009, 17:17

Prowler/Cosmic...apologies for the delay..i havent been here...if you still want to pick the rest of the stuff up you reserved shoot me a PM.

Ouch. I've only had that happen to me once, 15 years ago, and that was painful on a 1.4 fiesta

Hi Doog,

It's great to see you back on board again.

Bad news about the cambelt, mate!

I'm interested in the Archimedes A3000 with wonky monitor and also the PowerMac Director's Edition in black riunning Mac OS 8, please.

I'll try to get something organized with cosmicfrog about travelling down.

PM sent. Thanks.

DoogUK · 04 November 2009, 21:33

Replied to your PM..no worries...give us a shout when ready.

cosmicfrog · 05 November 2009, 10:50

busted cambelt = dead engine = ouch

seems the 2000 has gone walk about, hum the plot thinkens, what theres a plot, well i never, is it any good, no its just some retor kids mucking about again, oh well I`ll wait till it come`s out on dvd then.

I still want the things i wanted if that makes any sence, I`ll list them later, but this is the 2nd time Ive typed all this out after hitting back on the browser , whos a stupid froggie

DoogUK · 05 November 2009, 13:07

Can anyone provide a Ribbit translation?

chiark · 05 November 2009, 14:51

Not a clue, sorry. I think he still wants stuff for free

And i thought you were fluent in Ribbitish

prowler · 05 November 2009, 22:35

No, it's very difficult to grasp even the basic concepts!

(Ribbitish? HA! More like Rubbish!

)

I think Cosmic will just have to tell you himself what he wants you to reserve for him when he's had his medication and become more coherent!

cosmicfrog · 06 November 2009, 15:47
