Ah nuts. I saw this posted on Preloved.com - seems like a lady posted it and the area showed as Devon. I paid £5 of my hard earned cash to be able to reply to her on Preloved and ask her about these machines.

No reply, now I know why - seems like you guys have it all sewn up!
 
wow! What an unusual haul!

Madness, right? So with Preloved.com you have to join - fair enough I thought, so I did - then I went back to the advert and tried to click on the contact link only to be met with a warning I need to "upgrade my account". The deal is, if you want to contact the advertiser within a couple of days of them posting, you need a paid account - hence the £5. Otherwise you have to wait for something like 12 days after the post - meaning you'll never get anything!

Madness.

Sounds similar to Loot classifieds which quite frankly a load of crap, tbh I'm surprised Loot newspaper is still going? Thought they'd be long gone

I would happily do so if I wasn't already booked when this is going on!
Spoke to Bonehead and a few others about it during Cambridge this weekend just gone, sounds like it'll be an interesting one (hard hats included!)
I was interested in that ThunderBlade and also I could have sworn I'd seen a stack of small square-ish cocktails when I first saw the photos, but I can't find them now.

Good luck fellas, take video and loads of photos and be bloody careful which floorboards you put weight on!

Didn't realise a date was all set, I can't make it sadly. Good luck though all involved, it will be a blast.

Hint: it's all arranged. Those who know when and where have it all arranged.
For the rest of us, we'll have to wait for the photos.

Actually guys - take some video as well please!

Over the last few days, 5 teams of fearless men performed heroics and arduous long hours and sleep deprevation to rescue all that could possibly be rescued from this death trap of a building. Everyone made it out alive. A huge thank you to everyone involved. I'm sure the pics will follow soon.
