Just looking through 'Gumtree' and saw this touching request...
Now don't all rush at once, this master of the English language is obviously in dire straits and being such a sensitive soul, we might frighten him by swamping him with too many free parts all at once.
I propose to give him two printers, as many as CRT monitors as he can get in a taxi and my best PC because I think he deserves it - for giving me the best laugh of the day !

As you have taken the lead Mikkh I thought I better do my bit so I just popped my i7 processor out of its mother board, bundled up a few spare SATA 1 GB plus hard drives, a Dell 30" Ultra sharp cinema display monitor and thrown in my complete Adobe Master suite production bundle of software (sorry, softwear). Can you pass on his address as with all the postal strikes going on I might pop it round to him personally.

Nice to see someone rallying to the cause ;o)
But back to reality, did the joker really expect a flood of help? I can forgive his lack of spelling - just, but there's no hint of a reason offered, or one shred of common manners like saying please or thank you.
I think I'll put my own ad in
Wanted, any old plasma 60"+ TV's going spare? must be in perfect working order and be supplied with subscription to all TV channels - cable or Sky, not fussy which one.
Also any spare Rolls Royce's, private helicopters and going business concerns worth a Billion pound plus gratefully received.
A remote tropical island would be nice too, but I realise that might be a bridge too far and I'll settle for a caravan in Skeggy instead

Metal Micky's dead so it not him. He was totally illiterate though, I even used to fill his Social forms in for him. The wording sounds about right, if he had been able to write it.
I've had enough of remote tropical islands, the novalty wears a bit thin after a while. Skeggy sounds good though, they sell Guinness there.

For those intrigued by 'Skeggy' it's an East coast holiday resort called Skegness that's very popular with people from Nottingham and surrounding areas.
Nearly every time I go, I see more Nottingham people I know, than I do in the city centre!
When I was a child, the family holiday was invariably to the posher (in my mums mind) Mablethorpe just up the road and I didn't become acquainted with 'Skeggy' until I was a teenager
