I'm a bit partial to a Tunnock's Log - am I required to leave the forum?

ooh yer they look nice, never seen them before. About Andrew liking the logs, I think he should be allowed to stay on the forum but have to register under the kinky section alongside the invalid carriage enthusiasts!  :D :D

I have dropped Tunnocks a line and enquired about sponsorship. You never know, nothing ventured nothing gained.

I can imagine that some new members to the Forum are completely bewildered as to the connection between Tunnocks and KR 200's.  May be someone should disentangle the thread if that is possible.
I was intrigues by the games on the Tunnock website may be we should have something like that on our Website to catch the eye.  A micro obstacle course to negoiate perhaps?
By the way if there hadn't been an Exchange and Mart in the 70/80's suspect there would never have been a Hammond Collection - it was Edwin's favourite reading matter.   Jean

That's not very nice Mr. P. What is kinky about liking I.C.s? A least none of them are over restored!!!!!

I see Jean made the 8000th posting.

Just about everything really, its a good word Rob, it means, Bazaar, eccentric, weird, peculiar and could apply equally to any microcar enthusiast , as invalid carriages are even more deviant than other unusual microcars it seams very appropriate, if I were an I.C. fan I would take it as a compliment. In this 'club' the more deviant [kinky] the taste in vehicles the more brownie points earned surely!

Ah, the last day and its on the move Chris, £9,300 and climbing. Who is going to win "the price is right challenge", I'm still sticking with £10,500.

The sale closes at £11,650. The credit crunch doesnt appear to be effecting microcar prices too much.

I dont think you win Marcus because you gave a very wide estimate and the price was still outside of it. As its Chris's thread we better let him choose the winner. I dare say the prize will be a box of toffee Tunnocks!

Dear Friends

Thank you for making this thread an interesting and varied one.

As Bob has stated it is down to me to proclaim the winner on the basis of the following data: -

There were only three players, Stuart at £13,750, Marcus at £9-11,000 and Bob at £10,500.

Now 13,750 is £2,100 too much so Stuart comes last.
The average of 9-11000 is £10,000 which is £1,650 too little so Murcus comes second,
And Bob's £10500 was £1,150 too little so he comes closest and wins the six month old Toffee Tunnocks.

My supply has suprisingly dried up at the moment and I may have to suppliment them with some soft centre one week old Tunnock Tea Cakes. Would that be OK  Bob?

Thank you again

Chris Thomas
