1/2 a Lamb

Haven't got room in the freezer for a whole one

 

A friend of mine once had the same problem with a moose

 

Second album I've ever pre-ordered, and the first doesn't really count as HMV decided not to get it in after all. Can't wait!

 

Never posted in this thread before, but have a few pictures of my weekend shenanigans.


Was at a thrift store and found this little gem for a bargain. How could I say no?! Also came away with several classic Star Wars figures (not pictured). For a genuine McFarlane this is utter terrible quality it must be said; easily the worst McFarlane in my collection.


For no particular reason I've decided to start buying Lego again. Not touched a brick since I was a child, but in the past few months I've managed to buy seven or eight sets of the bloody stuff. The Mobile Crane Mk II is quite honestly the most impressive Lego thing I've ever touched though; well impressed I am. Took up most of my Saturday (no regrets).


Last but not least my latest R/C purchase: G-Made R1 Rock Buggy. Since Saturday was spent playing with Lego I decided to spend Sunday playing with this thing, rebuilding it top to bottom straight out of the box to get a better stance, better working suspension, and do the decals. Have yet to take it out into the real world, but it already seems miles better than the AX10 I had before. Once money becomes available again I do intend to go full Li-Po on it with a steering servo in the back as well. Also trying to work out how I can put some lighting on it, complete with remotely-activated switch (already got a tiny little servo for it and the receiver/transmitter is equipped for the third channel, just need to find a light set and work out how to make it functional).

So that was my weekend

 

Picked up this keyboard at the local thrift store for $4, looks new and has nice clickity clack mechanical goodness...


(Crappy phone pic)

It's from 2001 and has a switch to make it AT or XT. Looking around I only found a little info on it here: http://deskthority.net/wiki/Focus_FK-2001

I also got a Gamecube for $5 and a stack of older Star Trek magazines for $3 at the Salvation Army Friday night.

 

Sweet purchases guys, quite the weekends you've had!

I really need to start thrift shopping again.

 

I think it comprised of a couple of gallons of Ocean Spray and a large pipe cleaner...

All I need now is a sledge hammer and I'll be about as manly as I can get.
