doing the rounds


Having spent an hour searching every game, junk and charity shop in Brighton i have still not found a single item of interest.


There were some D/C pads in an old record and tape shop, no VM units though.


I did find several Amiga disks but nothing i didn't have already.


Several shops that sold ps2 and xbox games said they did not stock anything as old as the dreamcast, did not bother telling the Muppets that they were the same generation as both the consoles they did stock, how can you own a shop and know fuck all about the scene.


A new begining

Cancer research has come up trumps again!
After several months my house move has completed and im finaly unpacked and settled.

After having sold a large amount of my retro collection to pay off my blood sucking management agents i have the space to start all over again.

So what better way to start than aq quick charity shop crawl round my new town of Worthing.

Worthing, if you did not know is just outside Brighton, and with the house crash just starting i got my new place for a steal.

There is also a large amount of junk shops. charity shops and car boot sales so its a retro paradise.

It was a good sighn that the first shop i tried had a copy of "out to lunch" fore the snes for 50p!

the next place i tried was empty except clothes and a few xbox disks, but the 3rd one, cancer research (great charity, you should donate to em if you can) had a drean cast for £3 with 2 controlers and cables.

lets hope my luck holds out and i get many more deals like this!
