  1. I need a couple of dead ones for an (*ahem*) ballistics experiment.

    I know they're inexpensive, but I just can't bring myself to cut up a
    new one. I'm happy to pay postage/packing to Canberra.

    Thanks.

    Funny you ask. I have one with a hole in it and need an old one to
    patch it!@ I'd offer you the one with the hole but am hoping I can get
    it fixed rather than throw it away. So, sorry not this time. I'm in
    Canberra too, so the postage would have been nil!

    occasionally I wish I'd stocked up on Durex sticky tape.

    It's more of a durability issue mate, even the "Roughriders" aren't
    tough enough for me!

    You're only supposed to use them once.

    Beer mate?

    Four years already? How time flies. Tell me what colour they were and I'll
    see if I can find them. :-)

    PM? These newfangled communications media will never catch on!

    Bowden cables and cotterless cranks are a flash in the pan too, mark my

    I never knew that occy straps existed, when I were a lad.

    None of the ones that I own have sufficient stretch in them though, I
    might have to wander through a few shops testing their occy straps...
