What is this Ian asking me to do?

A friend of mine, Phil Newby, has been diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (the famous case is Stephen Hawkins to give you some idea of what it is like). One of the things he is doing is organising a sponsored cycle/run/walk around Rutland Water to raise money for Motor Neurone Research.

I have now completed this great event at Rutland Water 14th June 2015

Thank you for sponsoring me

Finding bulky things on ebay in the local area

A great little search  tool fro ebay on the moneysaving expert website:

http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/shopping/local-ebay-deals/pe93aq/60-miles/all/ends/firepit/-/-/1/#results (this example is looking for a firepit, edit the fields to find thing you are looking for)

Sellers often specify that bulky, heavy items must be picked up in person. Many people are loath to travel far, so lack of competition keeps prices low.
Our Local eBay Deals Mapper exploits this. Simply tell it your postcode and how far you’re prepared to go, and it trawls eBay* for hidden gems nearby
