Horrid upstairs. But gorgeous downstairs.

I need a couple of packs of red Bikes, but with the card design on the box rather than the ten of hearts

Makes sense?

Anyone that can make International? Or Davenports before they shut?


I might be able to do that for you, mate.


Hey Ste

Thanks for the offer. Are you likely to pass Davenport's? Because they sell them and International don't...

If not don't worry, because they seem quite rare now I'm going to try and buy a bulk load anyway

Are you watching closely? Then I'll begin...

You're just after the old style of boxes? I have lots of old boxes.

Maybe swap with some new boxes? I always need boxes, but I use the newer ones, not the olde worldy ones.

Mine are mainly red, if I recall, though I may have blue too.

I think I have about 3 new style boxes if you're happy with that?

Three for three. OK. Red or blue?

They're not crushed, are they?

It would have been International that I would have called in to but I see you have found another samaritan!

I do actually have 1 unopened red box of bikes (in cellophane) on my desk if you need that?

Will swap you a sealed Bike (new box)

Preference on colour?

Laurence, don't worry about remembering mate, am just going to buy a job lot

Thanks for the offer though
