So help me out - what are the rules - Retropin answers then sets questions for another member??

I think everyone has a turn at answering the same questions. I know Retropin is flat out at the moment so I think it's OK if someone else wants to chime in and answer the questions first.

Have a go pinnies4me...

After missing out on the Super Score - took my dogs for a 2 hour walk along the beach to settle down.

Great news regarding (fingers crossed) getting more 1960s pins - will drive down the day they come in and help you unload.

Yeah I'm here now full time - that damn mate of yours - Nino kept busting my balls  :lol

Nino and balls .....  they dont seem to go together  !*! !*! !*!

as soon as i can confirm I have more  i will post it up here
always on the lookout  as Nino  knows     you should have seen him last time !!!!
I still remember his face as he broke the seal ...... 

just like a little kid in a candy store for the first time
