Socoder -> On Topic -> I Don't Need These...

I noticed my PayPal account had £33.90 in it, the other day, and thought "What utter shite can I waste £33.90 on?"
I pondered.
I browsed AmigaKit for a while. Usually when I spend PayPal cash, I spend it there. But I already have the USB Mouse Dongle, and I already have the PCMCIA CF reader. I needed nothing new for the Amiga.

I browsed Amazon, but nothing interesting showed up. Anything I'd want from Amazon, I generally already have.
Except maybe the odd game, but with Xmas coming up, I don't want to be limiting my options when folk ask what I'd like!!

.. So, what can I do with £33.90?

OK.. If anyone would like a completely frivolous and totally useless business card, pop your "physical universe existence" address into my PM Box or Email.

Shame there's nowhere to place your autograph!

One day, when you're rich and famous, these might be worth a penny or two

Ordered a bunch of stamps.
I have envelopes, and am about to start designing a generic Xmas card.

So if anyone wants in, PM or email me your home address, and once I can organise everything, I'll get posting them out.

.. you guys are costing me a fortune!!

I shouldn't have to add this disclaimer....

NOTE : I'm asking for the addresses of my friends at SoCoder, who I've been communicating with for many years, but haven't ever interacted with IRL.
I thought it would be nice to send them a little something IRL because .. well, that's nice isn't it!
This is NOT, I repeat NOT an open invite for every random person on the internet to send me their home address.

I've so far had three emails from folk that I, quite honestly, don't recognise!!

If you are one of the three people who've received a "who are you?" reply, but are definitely a member here, then reply to this and say "that was me, you silly fool", but I'm fairly sure that I don't know them!!

You can't just advertise free shit without the vultures swooping. Black Friday soon.

Xmas cards have been ordered. Should be here by the end of the week, then I'll be posting to all who've given me their address.

Last chance to be added to the list! PM or Gmail!

Completely forgot to send you my address - I'm not after a Christmas or business card though, so please don't waste your money by sending me anything. The cost of postage is silly nowadays and sending out loads of stuff will quickly mount up.

I'll PM you my addy now

Surely that's how handwriting is supposed to be? Well, that's how mine is...

Cards should start arriving soon, dependant on Postie-Laziness.
For the foreign cards, I've (based on random website suggestions) popped 3 stamps on, (!!!) and also written "airmail" on them.
Apparently that's plenty, but if you get a horribly mangled, disfigured Xmas card in April, that ain't my fault!!

I haven't written much on the cards. I'd intended to use the blank side as a waffle page, but then I remembered how utterly uttterly shit my handwriting is, and decided against it. Sorry, folks!!!

Feel free to LOL at my handwriting, assuming your postie can decipher it enough to read the address..

Oh, and you all got the same card. I initially intended to get a bunch of different ones printed, but getting them all the same was cheaper.. so nah!!

Can't be as bad as my boss's handwriting, I've all but gave up trying to follow any hand written instructions.
