Title: Cleared out the lock up today
Post by: Vamps on 13 September 2008, 22:12:39
When I moved back up north 12 years ago I dumped a lot of stuff in my brothers council lock up, where he also had an equal amount of junk. ::)

For the most part, there it has sat, untouched for all this time, being added to a little some years ago, neither of us has even been in for a few years.

Anyway we cleared it out today, as he is giving it up.

A lot of the stuff reminded me of another life, pre swmbo, her boys and daughter, and pre illness when I used to be fit and active. :(

A few boxes made it back to my garage, which is bursting anyway, mostly ready for ebay, but most went to the scrap man and the tip, guess I do not need it if not used in 12 years, ::) ::) ::) now where did I put that climbing rope?? ;D

A few years ::) ::) Got a grill, that I have never seen, bought it off ebay about 5 years ago, still wrapped, must have a look at it and get it back on ebay.
Just listed, on ebay a factory workshop manual for a Matra Rancho, not even sure there are any left on the Road. ::)
