Well found in any case - congrats! Title: Re: 060812 Post by: handyman [Alan} on August 06, 2012, 05:09:20 PM Hi GW
Thanks for taking the time to comment. My eyes ain't what they used to be, i can now see the long cross!! .. [By the way, thanks for the heads up on Banbury cross and Godiva, i'm still trying to ascertain if the 'robert reynolds' company had any outlets in the Banbury area. However i'm not holding out much hope as, at this moment in time, it looks like they were just a Coventry based warehouse operation,]. Cheers Title: Re: 060812 Post by: Val Beechey on August 06, 2012, 06:52:16 PM Well done there Al. Looks like you had a good day. :)
That pot leg looks more like a wellington boot. It is a nice one though. It's got a proper foot. Amazing, copper rings must be like buses. Thats the 2nd in a few days. Val Title: Re: 060812 Post by: Jassy on August 06, 2012, 07:15:42 PM nice one Al!
