In the past week David and i traded eggs for books, tax help for plumbing, Art for publishing, computer time for fresh fruit, CD-Rs to record 7"s, Doing dishes for hoovering, Postage for use of office space, Farm Milk so we could get a ride, voluenteer time for curtorial leads and clothes for editing. Does anyone else do this ? We like it because it seems democratic and convienent . We can get what we needed done and save money .

I give Pete beer. He puts up my flatpack furniture. I also tipped him with jelly, you should've seen his little face.

Was that jelly-jelly or Beyonce-jelly?

It was Rowntree's Lazy Bastard Raspberry jelly in a pot which Pete said tastes like Benyllin the ungrateful sod. I am saving my Beyonce Jelly for a special occasion.

I like benylin. The stuff is like crack cocaine to me.

Pete is stealing his benyllin addiction from a mate of ours who used to drink a bottle first thing every morning to counteract his smoker's cough.

I'm trading computer time for a certain professional photog service this week and am feeling unreasonably cool because of it. Unreasonable because your list, Anthony, is clearly topp. You appear to have made an art of it, which is CLASSIC. I need more skills.

"clothes for editing" = ??

Yes i gave some shirts so someone could edit my work.
