I'm not sure, but they did say recently that they were upping the charges for recovering stuff - they have 4 staff whose only job is to deal with lost property.

Maybe this should be moved to the new bargain board?

Went to the auction in Kevin Street
180 bikes on sale
You gotta pay a 50 yoyo deposit to bid which you get back if you don't buy anything.
Lots of BMX's and kids bikes you could pick oune up for 40 or so.
Mountain bikes were the most popular going for up to 180
I got one for 100 raleigh with shimano gears.
I reckon if you wait till the end the best deals are on but I couldn't wait.
Not the best deals in the world thought it would have been better.
Bikes have been in storage so bring a pump and a lock!!!

Posted this during my exams, wasn't so much concerned about the date as shítting it about which exam was next and how many seconds between them.
