TV Jones' email says the Classics were shipped today. Wonder if I'll get it before Christmas. Blimmin shipping is just about 50% of the price of one pickup :roll:

Looks like no GST was charged :D

Yeah shipping is a bloody pain, try sites in europe, they are usually way cheaper than the us sites. Though you probably know that.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

I was talking shipping in general, though I'm sure there must be sites in europe that sell TV Jones

I've got a casual 20 grand worth of windows and doors coming. Although I've had a thought, I could simply tell Jo that the bill for those is 25K, and get Grant to slip his Rickenbacker 381 in the mail as well.
