I have both the High Tide albums on Liberty from 1969 on vinyl. I paid about one pound fifty in 1974. Fifteen years ago they were avertised for £500 each.
And, no, they are not for sale.

A large Samsonite suitcase. I took a load of stuff round the tip in Lewes where they have a little hut selling stuff, cost me £3 and there's nothing wrong with it.
Did the same thing last September and bought a medium sized Samsonite suitcase again in GWO only a quid.
What is it with Lewes and Samsonite cases

Maths. It's maths.
It is both actually, mathemetics is a collective noun like ecoustics
Math or maths is really an abbreviation either way if you are British it's generally referred as maths
Personally I always thought that
2+2 = math
2+3+3 = maths
would make more sense

The best bargain I ever found hmmm
Well when I worked for the benefits agency and it was traditional to have a whip round when you left. Well it my leaving do that evening and they had chipped in about 20 quid. Manager got called into a meeting so couldnt go and get me anything so gave me the envelope and said go buy something and I'll present it to you
So I walked into town and bumped into an old mate who was an avid and professional shoplifter. So I said to him here's a fiver go and get me something with a face value of 19.99
1 WHSmiths later I had a Red Dwarf book (I wasnt really a big fan he just chose it as it was the correct size for him and the right RRP)
So 15 quid up, box of cigs and a round of drinks covered and a free book which I never did read
Does that count?

No worries. I was just being a tit.
No worries, I always feel more clever calling it math not maths
