Found this Space Invaders bath towel in Primark in Edinburgh of all places. It was the last one they had and only cost £6. The missus says it clashes with the white and green colour scheme of our bathroom but I think it looks just lovely :mrgreen:

During my car boot walking this morning i saw this several time in a stand, it was kinda funny looking and since i love The Beatles i decided to buy it!

Image

No idea if it's worth something, but i just paid 3£ for it :lol:

It's the black and white one, I didn't really buy it, it was given to me. Me and my wife called him oliver, and the black one that we have had for about 8 months now is called bagheera.

Just got 35 Archie Comics, Sonic, Knuckles, Tails & a few Specials from my local "Second Hand Shop like Cash Converters" (Word replacement due to complaint from said company) for £19.99. Most were in good condition with the exception of about 5-6, I didn't think it was a bad price though for that lot.

yeah, i bought it after several of the retro collectors i follow on youtube recommended it, i figured that if guys that usually talk about games think it is that good that they have to recommended it in their videos, then it is worth a shot, and for some strange reason i find it easier to read english books then norwegian books :lol:
