Yes shopp. PayPal is good. Though I have never used it yet for money coming in. It’s always for money going out !

Ps. It’s been great to be able to contribute something back to the forum.
You'll need to get people to send as a gift to avoid fees. Or just up the price a little to cover the costs. I myself will have no issues sending as a gift :-)

Thank you mark for the advice.
When I placed the order for the 12 pipes we agreed on £10.00 per pipe as a barrow job.
When I collected the pipes and asked what do I owe you.
The reply was don’t worry about it. Just take me on a night out and a curry. I agreed
Thinking about this afterwards I hope the £120 will cover it. As he has hollow legs and can drink all day with little effect. I am usually utterly legless.

Ha ha. Or I could buy some more Rs6 motors.
Think my wife would have something to say about that !
She keeps reminding me that this one is very expensive to maintain. Some heated conversations on what I spend on maintaining my pride and joy lol.

Maybe you can gently remind her that your RS6 in no particular order,
keeps you out from under her feet
gives you a 24/7 interest
keeps you out of the pub
stops you chasing fast (or slow) women

All of which is likely to be more expensive :D

I can say that it can be a persuasive argument, you may even be allowed a second one.

After visiting the post office.
Total cost including padded envelope and first class delivery as follows:
Uk mainland £15.00
Ireland £17.00
Australia. £32.00 (2 fittings )
USA. £19.00
Managed to reduce the cost as the o rings were not as expensive as I expected.
