Andrew Henderson

Welcome To Trading Nothing


My name is Andrew Henderson and I'm trading up from absolutely nothing to...

... a Rolls Royce car!

Or... a Bentley car!

In however many steps it takes. Of course.

It's my hobby.

Speedy Talks!

Check out my current offerings below - yes, I've traded up from nothing to all of these - and feel free to make me an offer of any number of your things for any number of mine.

I'm always interested in offers of anything, and I really do mean anything...

Currently I drive this reliable (so far!) old Volkswagen Golf. It has a damaged wing and a spot of rust here and there...

Just so happens I've never seen a rusty Rolls Royce or Bentley, so I figure one of these practical motors would do me for a while, if only I could somehow upgrade to one...

My blog covers all my trades... and even a bit more! And all of these articles are just brilliant, I'm sure you will agree...

Kinsale Times story 2

I am based somewhere in the middle of England, and am prepared to travel to anywhere on earth to make a trade if I think it makes sense.

Anywhere except The City of Iqaluit that is, which the rest of the world figures must actually exist because "they have a website".

Well actually I've agreed to a few postal trades now, but I am very particular about doing those.

There are no trees in Iqaluit. Apparently. Assuming there really is such a place...

Also why not check out a television crew gate-crashing my Trade 11 at Leicester Square in London! And then having the cheek to rename it "TRADE 1"!!...

I really should try to find more quotes for here. Hmm.

Shiver Me Timbers, A Jack Of All Trades (Trade 37)


OK OK I know I know, it's been a while... But I now have a trade to report so here I am!

I spent the weekend before last in Amsterdam, which happens to be the scene of Trade 19.

And I saw a lot of oranje landlubbers...

Amsterdam Queen's Day

I also met up with Lav, a Dutch canal pirate who be eyeing my trading booty for quite a while now...

Lav

Lav took me along on a long long voyage around the canals of Amsterdam. At some point I was pretty sure we were lost and would have to take a taxi back or something. Maybe a canal taxi. All in all obviously quite an alarming time for me...

But also the perfect time to work out a trade!

So I produced the little green guy and asked Lav what she'd like to offer me for a trade, and she produced...

One squirty orca!

Deal or no deal?

Well if it was just an orca I might have backed off, and fallen into the canal, but this was a squirty orca and therefore a trade-up offering...

So we had a deal!

And we did the trade...

Trade 37 with Lav

And then, before you could say "c'mon matey sup up yer salty dog, ye be drinking like a landlubber! yarrr" Lav had named her little green guy...

Captain Jack Smiley O'Green

And then Captain Jack appeared on twitter and even started his own photo blog!

So who wants to trade me something for the squirty orca? details soon...
