I'm unsure if this is fantastic or just plain daft. It takes me a couple of months to save that kind of spare cash, and it's normally for essential things like getting the motor serviced or travelling abroad. Some of these ARRSE chariddee auctions wholly defy the current financial climate.

Fucking bollocks. Sad My wife was hoovering today, and the noise meant that she didn't hear the postie at the doorbell. Now I've got to go to the parcel depot in the morning to sign for my coin. Another day's wait...

Work? Far too busy for that kind of thing. Cool

Anyway, if I gave the cash straight to H4H, then someone else would have to drive Ord_Sgt ballistic over his Corn Flakes every morning... Very Happy

Of course, a group of bidders could always club together to negate the chance of this priceless treasure leaving British shores, and being used solely to amuse slack-jawed hayseeds and dodgy cowboys* in seedy Texas bars?

* This is in no way meaning to denigrate cowboys in bars, who have a perfect right to live whatever lifestyle they choose, and dress accordingly. Far be it from me to judge how other people want to carry on. Not my cup of tea, but there you are; takes all sorts.

Re: Hols4H auction: ARRSE Challenge Coin #001

Post Posted: Sat Jul 25, 2009 12:54 am

Hols4Heroes Peeps... any thoughts on a Certificate of Authenticity for all items auctioned then? maybe even with an ink stamp of Sgt Slingsby & H4H to act as a kind of Authenticating SEAL, for something like the 001 Coin going for 350GBP it would be worth it so the auction value is known for future reference of these items. Maybe even add an info page to the Hols 4 Heroes Site listing all items and their Authenticity numbers/what they went for/where they went etc.?

Remember, that handy hidden small pocket in Levi's 501 is the ideal location for the Challenge Coin, especially when you wake up trashed in a Tube Train in a station the opposite side of London you started out in 10 hours previously, no money & no wallet, watch & trainers/boots/shoes half inched while you got your head down for a 'couple of minutes' - BUT your Challenge Coin is still there in it's little hidey hole Very Happy


Anyone know if elovabloke got his Coin in time for his rendevouz at the Nineteenth Hole?!
