Check whether your comp has DDR, DDR2 or DDR3 and make sure that in stom's computer matches.

I've also got a monitor if anyone wants it. Its a 17inch CRT (fat) and the colours might be slightly off, but its been good as a second screen.
based in Sheffield.

Qualcast electric lawnmower - cylinder type.  It still works, but the cut is pretty uneven, and to be honest i gave up on it when the roller seemed to do more than the blades!  Derby area.  It'll go to the tip in a couple of weeks if no-one wants it.  I'll rephrase that; i'll have to drive it to the tip in a couple of weeks.

Wireless router (G-spec), no built in modem, just a router. Belkin, might have the instructions knocking about, might not.

Take the blade off, file cutting edges down to sharp edge and it'll good as new (unless it's the motor that's knackered, which it'll probably be by now!).

I need to do that to ours if it helps. Can you just use an ordinary bastard file or is it hardened and needs something like a dremel?

(apologies for swearing).

As long as the file ain't a wood one or too coarse then yeah.  Usually you get the spanner to undo the bolt on the bottom of the lawnmower when you buy it, but it's pretty big so if you don't have it chances are you might have some difficulty in getting it off to get the blade off.

Don't have any power tools or the like (apart from a drill) so no idea.  Would just use whatever tools are available for the job.  Bear in mind that my mower is over 10 years old, motor is starting to pack up so could well be different for modern mowers of today.   :shrug:  Metal shouldn't be too hardened - a file should be more than adequate.

DISCLAIMER: I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE / FRUSTRATION INCURRED IF YOU WERE TO FOLLOW THE ADVICE GIVEN IN THIS POST OR THE PREVIOUS ONE.

Just to be safe...  :P

Sounds exactly like mine, will have a look, as at the moment it seems to pull grassout rather than cut it.

I've bought a new mower now, but if anyone wants a bash at fettling the old one they are very welcome to give it a go.  Can't vouch for the motor, but it is working at the moment.

The grills ruin the sound quality anyway, any audiophile would take them off.  :lol:

Can I assume noone wants my stunt table and dining bike?  Last chance before the Tip.

Got a Metolius bouldering pad that needs to go. No sure of age as I bought it second hand but there is still some life left in it.

One of these except it's black and green and maybe a slightly older design.
http://www.buzzillions.com/dz_11406_metolius_behemoth_crash_pad_reviews

Can meet easily in Sheffield or meet half way to Leeds, Manchester etc.
