And another eBay plonker...

I'm currently selling another 20" iMac G4. The price is £250 but I'm open to offers, and someone in Spain bid slightly less yesterday - the amount he entered was in my "OK, accept this" range, so the offer was automatically accepted. Now he's asked me to cancel because he didn't understand it worked that way. My guess, he saw the eye-watering amount eBay add to this, since I'd have to send it via the global shipping program, and realised he'd been an idiot. Oh well, yet another name to add to my list of blocked bidders...

A footnote to this - he later emailed me and said that if I lowered the price he _might_ be interested - AFTER offering me a price I was prepared to accept as noted above. I didn't bother telling him to get lost, it ought to be pretty obvious if he ever tries to buy from me again...

Picspam - swans, legoose, and some sinister fungi

I actually took these a couple of weeks ago but forgot to post them.

First, I came across a family of swans and their (now nearly grown) cygnets.

I think this may have been the same family of swans I saw in August, the numbers seem right: http://ffutures.livejournal.com/1217427.html - lots of big pictures

Next, a goose who seems to have made an interesting discovery:

( Legoose )

and finally some very sinister looking fungi I saw in Kensington Gardens - I'll put my theory about it behind the cut since it isn't nice...

Probably won't be many more picspams this year with winter coming on, but you never know.
