internet yard sale

Thank you all for your kind comments on the last post. We're dashing off to look at flats in London now. Oof. I have been furiously throwing stuff out in an attempt to convince myself that there is order to the universe. And speaking of which: these are two hasty Flickr sets of stuff I'm selling or giving away - I'll add the details, prices and so on tonight.

Clothes. Mostly Monsoon-type things, nearly all size 14, and a lovely but weird coat which is the only designer thing I own but would be better on a taller person (I'm five feet). Some free, most a fiver, a couple (the jackets) eight quid. The white fluffy scarf has a story behind it which is funny and ethically thorny at the same time.

Books and music (some of them). Books range from free to three quid for the big hardbacks. CDs mostly free or a pound a pop.

If you think you might want any of this stuff, you're welcome to come and get it (this Sunday afternoon is the 'official' time, but other times good too) or just let me know and I'll work out the postage.

Right, off to the bus. It's a beautiful pearly morning. Time for the Lemmings voice: let's go!

I'd be interested in the Sufjan Stevens, Ballboy, Nine Inch Nails (all except Downward Spiral), Belle & Sebastian, Banco de Gaia, Y3K, Kristin Hersch, Rough Trade 2003 and SFA Fuzzy Logic, if that's ok? Opening bid £25, with the understanding that if months go by and there's anything in there you regret parting with you can claim it back. Sound ok? I can't do Sunday afternoon but I'm sure another time can be found...

Oof, too late for Ballboy but Baader Meinhof and Nick drake?

Take a look at monsoon's website - they recycle old monsoon clothes & will (from memory) give you a £10 creit note to be used in store for them. You may want to divide into several lots in case the shop assistants read it as £10/lot though - and you may need to print out the webpage because they don't publicise it in store.

I'm interested in the Toby Litt book. Also I owe you a tenner from Wednesday!

I'd be quite interested in that copy of Whipping Boy's - Heartworm you have :)

Can I have the Patrick Wolf and the Covenant?

I really like that green jacket. I'm not convinced that it will fit (curse my manly shoulders) but clearly I will have to pop round on Sunday to check...

Ooh, can I get that pretty lacy blue skirt, please?

I would very much like Timoleon Vieta Come Home if you don't mind posting. (Or if you fancy a handover in London. I second the vote for living south of the river, BTW.)

I really like the green dress and the red one, if they fit.

I would like to try the grey velvet jacket (my much loved one is getting somewhat threadbare). I'm also interested in Her Fearful Symmetry, and in Of Mice and Men.

I'd love this skirt (http://www.flickr.com/photos/37942320@N00/4953082981/in/set-72157624868465422/). What are you asking? Happy to pay p&p, or wait till I see you next? I rather like the blue lacy one as well, but looks like that's been claimed. Sadly I don't think any of the top half garments would fit me!

Best of luck with the rest. Have been thinking of you. x

Ooh, what do you want for the VNV Nation?

I'd like the longish dress with the blue trim and the black/white flower print, if it's still unsold.
