    Holidays for Heroes - T shirts

    All,

    Next week I'll be collecting a selection of sand-coloured 'Holidays for Heroes' tshirts in a range of sizes from our generous supplier. These shirts have been seen at all the best fundraisers as well as at La Torre. Here's a pic of one from last year's Weymouth event.

    This thread is to sell ten of each size at £12.50 each, to include postage to any UK or BFPO address. Apologies to the petite members of the ARRSE community, but the sizes will be L, XL, XXL and XXXL. This is just advance notice, so you can save your pennies (better find out when payday is!).

    I'll sell them on a first-come, first-served basis, and will post them to the buyers as quickly as possible after I collect them on 6th. Please put your name against the shirt you want - no overbidding please - and PM me your address.

    Thanks
    GRB

    And this you can see is the bolt. The purpose of this
    Is to open the breech, as you see. We can slide it
    Rapidly backwards and forwards: we call this
    Easing the spring. And rapidly backwards and forwards
    The early bees are assaulting and fumbling the flowers:
    They call it easing the Spring.
    They call it easing the Spring: it is perfectly easy
    If you have any strength in your thumb: like the bolt,
    And the breech, and the cocking-piece, and the point of balance,
    Which in our case we have not got; and the almond-blossom
    Silent in all of the gardens and the bees going backwards and forwards,
    For today we have naming of parts.

    Who is that handsome chap with the knackered daps? Last seen sharing a wall in which we were using as a toilet, although I hasten to add I was standing at least 6 inches further away from.

    1 x XXL for the more rotund of handsome chap please my lovely.

    what the world needs is an enema, make that two - just to give it a sense of purpose.

    US electoral democracy is just a structured system of legalised bribery.

    a senior Chinese officer has said, “all the great nations in the world own aircraft carriers – they are symbols of a great nation”. That’s why China has just commissioned its first. By the same token, to opt for a “carrier gap” of some years is to abandon your responsibilities.

    Thank you all for your swift responses! Three PMs before tea!

    That handsome chap has to be nameless, and is the only pic I could find of someone in a sand-coloured shirt. As the saying goes those who need to know, know.

    I'll post the payment information (d'oh!) but would ask that you don't pay until I actually have the shirts in my hand next Wednesday, just in case. (Old Project Managers' habits never die )

    I don't think PayPal/Nochex/alternatives were ever sorted out, Gundulph. PM me if that's a problem.

    At this stage, please don't pay for your shirts, just in case there's a problem and they're not ready on Wednesday. I'll post the bank details and GO FOR IT once they're in my hands. Thanks.
