Your chosen destination mighty coincides with an ideal web spot & your depositions might cause a commotion, commotion would I’m certain would trigger a response. A shout of dissatisfaction in Alice might easily be heard in Sidney.
Poor bloke, was he a one hit wonder?

I fear that it will be finding a permanent home in the transport section of my library. I apologise to those who’s eyes glittered at the prospect of a “crumb from under my table” but even at the cover price of £20 it is attractive. The history of the firm from inception through to the advent of our cars is instructive; a visit to the local library might turn a copy up for you to assess.
I ordered a pile of hardware of eBay & my wife commented that it is too easy to buy “Stuff” these days & I wouldn’t buy so much if I had to go & get it.
We were discussing this after Sunday service, I had spent £14, the only smoker at church commented that was the price of a packet of fags. These will be turned to smoke & ash in a day, whilst I will have hours of fun on the intended project & I’ll have an end product which will allow me to move the car “X & Y” in the garage to access all corners with ease.
Which brings me back to the book,
For less than thirty fags you can buy a book which will entertain, educate & when you have finished it you still have it.
And if you don’t want to keep it you can sell it to someone like me.
Try & get a little more than the £3.15 I paid, he said, trying not to trumpet his good fortune too loudly.

You wrong about the pack of ciggies they have a long lasting legacy that will be with you for the rest of your life (however much shorter that lifespan will be) and that is the damage to your health the gift that keeps on giving!Airportable post=209879 userid=5200And one last comment on the book.

I've done a lot of work for one of the major ciggie manufacturers (They were a major client of my then employer and actually a great place to work, absolutely brilliant conditions) and I know exactly how they're made and exactly what goes in 'em!...........even though I've never been a smoker, having seen the process of making the damned things, I can say this with absolutle authority......You would need to have nothing but rocks in your head to smoke the filthy things after what I've seen!

Other, possibly that one of the smaller opposition parties has been pictured with a pint in one hand & a fag in the other.
