Ben, the recent convert to the world of Macs, is selling off some old gear:

• Minolta X-300 SLR Camera
• EPSON Perfection 1200S Flatbed A4 SCSI Scanner
• Complete AMD Desktop PC, 1Ghz, 256MB RAM, 80Gb Hardrive
• 256MB DDR 333 CL2.5 PC2700 LAPTOP RAM

As part of our post exam activities, ‘MVT Summer‘, Chris, Owen and I are intending to follow the South Cornwall Coast Path, a 150 mile walk from Plymouth to Land’s End. Hopefully Ben & Claire, Lucy & Adam, and the girls from House 69 will be able to join us at some stage on our trip.

I’m looking for a decent pair of boots size 8-9, a backpack and a highly compressible sleeping bag. If anyone has anything in good condition and going cheap please let me know. My email address is jacksmall [at] gmail [dot] com or leave a comment.

Chris Saunders is selling his camera and a couple of lenses, all used but in good condition:

Canon Zoom Lens EF 80-200mm 1:4.5-5.6
Canon Zoom Lens EF 28-80mm 1:3.5-5.6
Canon EOS 3000N

Ben has got himself online.

How big was it?

We had our second and third couch surfers today, Franzi and Karo. My profile is here.

Owen has put up a page about our MVT Summer activities, mentioning our ‘Alternating Walk’ and the Beatles Re-enactment.

Alternating Walk:
Alternative Walking simply involves taking alternative right and left turns; turn right at the first junction you meet, left at the second…

The Beatles Reenactment, Plymouth Hoe:
Forty years after the Beatles visit to Plymouth, we decided to reenact the famous photo of the Beatles sat on the Hoe with Smeaton’s Tower in the background. Thanks go to…

If you’re interested in the idea of an Alternating Walk or similar ideas check out the Lonely Planet’s Experimental Travel page, I think Blind Man’s Buff travel is next on our list.

Chris also has a Beatles page up.
