Hi all,
Having a clear out following the arrival of our baby daughter a couple of months ago. I'll be listing some bike related things in the next couple of days, but first off here are some nice off-topic bits I have for sale. Donation will be made to the forum if a few bits sell.
Happy to post all items at cost, or you're welcome to collect from me in Brighton.

1) Optima H27 home cinema projector £100
One of my favourite ever purchases, but my new house doesn't really accommodate it. So, with much regret it's up for sale. There's a good review, which also covers the main technical info, here: http://www.techradar.com/reviews/pc-mac/monitors-and-projectors/data-projectors/optoma-h27-50508/review
Picture quality is excellent. Not HD but is HD compatible (it downscales HD resolution to DVD res), and I'll include a HD to DVI-D adaptor. Also comes with remote control, original box and manual, and an assortment of leads. Cosmetically it's pretty much like new and there's over 1700hrs left on the bulb - so no need to replace that any time soon.
NB. Some more info for anyone unfamiliar with these projectors; they don't need to be ceiling-mounted. Placing them on a table or on the floor is fine - I put it under my sofa. Also, due to the high contrast and bright bulb you can project directly onto a light coloured wall and even use it in the daytime.
2) 1960s ORIS Swiss Made watch £95
High quality gold plated vintage watch in amazing condition for age. Glass is unmarked, very minimal wear to case, dial is like new. Only real sign of wear is on the winder - on which the gold plating has worn. All original - nothing has been replaced. Watch winds and sets smoothly and keeps accurate time. Comes with a barley used genuine crocodile strap, which cost £85 new.
3) Olivetti Lettera 22 typewriter £35
Beautiful typewriter (and often a fetish item for graphic designers). This one is in great condition for age and comes with the original case and dust cover. I've also just replaced the ribbon so it's ready to use.
pm me if you'd like any more info or pics.
Cheers, Paul
