Stuff
Most of us have a tendency to accumulate crap over the years. Here is a compendium of some of mine. The intention is to list items with reviews and pictures where appropriate and possibly indicate a few which I'd be willing to part with for good homes and/or the right price. Some stuff I guess should go on a suitable swap shop site (ebay?)
I don't collect DVDs or videos unlike most people these days. I rarely tend to watch a particular film again after I've seen it. I mostly let the TV schedules decide what to see again. I cheifly tend to collect books & computer games. With a bit of cheesy tat and spare parts thrown in for good measure. When I was younger I collected toy robots some of which have survived the test of time better than others. I also collected novelty keyrings. Very occasionally I still add to these two collections.
Books
Books are covered under the section titled - strangely enough - books (not yet they ain't)
Computer Games
Stuff I want
Strictly speaking I've got too much crap already but there are a couple of items I'd like to pick up.
- Corpse Marker - Chris Boucher
This is a Doctor Who novel with a bit of Blake's 7 crossover written by one of the better author / script-writers to have worked on both series. Its a sequel to "The Robots of Death" and also the inspiration for the Kaldor City audio-books which I happen to have been following.
I have now acquired this through a reseller on Amazon. Expect a review to appear soonish.

- Star-Seige Universe
This was the third game in the Earth Seige series which was the main competitor to the Mech Warrior series of games. I found this series to be much more atmospheric and the games to play better. I never played the original EarthSiege but I had EarthSiege II and enjoyed it so much I bought a second copy when someone "borrowed" my CD and returned Swiv 3D instead (which I already had a copy of). My copy of StarSeige is missing a Cd too after lending that to someone. I'm keen to track down a copy. Allegedly it is sometimes available on budget. I have yet to see it though.
Latest news my friend Neil has acquired a copy for me from his local shop. Hurrah!
