I want me some 12 Bore!

Yeah, me too!! The 12-Bore still looks classy, nearly 50 years on. Although I have to admit that the hair cream wouldn’t be of much use to me these days *cough*.
And those black boxes of Carrolls with the crest in gold. My mother gave my father one of those for a present around 1968 or so. I still have the box. Not filled with No. 1s, though. I think they’re made in Hungary nowadays.
Nice to see you back, DubDoug! Very happy Christmas to you and looking forward to BNR in 2015.

Glad you’re back. I was worried you had given up. I agree the 12 bore is brilliant but the pervert with the pipe in the Glen abbey ad made me laugh aloud.
