Re: imfo on lamps

Well said Anthony,
He doesn't realise what a visit he can get from you and the Lads from the Black Stuff. Lots of us have his address if you want to take the wagon and team round and tarmac his drive!!! Even put the cones out to divert the neibours.

Its a good job he hasn't sold you one of his fake cut n shut lamps, he keeps putting on e-bay, you really would be mad as a wasp and ready to drive down and through his front door. harropedge is his fake lamp selling ID
