    Pellet collection update

    Table now full!.(have actually had to take out some german stuff due to new arrivals).anyway.......may get round to getting a little display case (like I have seen at toy fairs for matchbox cars and the like).....for my little (favorite) 100 shot size old jerry stuff,...

    .and so create some gaps in the hope of coming across some older stuff that is contemporary with my older guns.....adders and whittons etc. But these turn up once in a blue moon!.......Fair play to IKEA......god knows what this lot weigh (most are full), and the table still slides open smoothly and shows no sign of bowing

    Cant believe the original pic has had over 700 hits, and I am up to 57,000 hits on the old adverts and guns......power of t'internet I s'pose......a lot come from links I have posted on here, but image searches from various engines are accounting for about 30%.....

    Simply superb Ed. Once again, thanks for sharing these with us (still using the other photo as a screen-saver ). I note tho that you don't have a tin of .177 Webley GPs from the late 1980s in your collection however (same as in photo below). So if you fancy one, full, and un-opened, let me know as I may be up for a swap or something as I have two . Atb: G.

    Actually......you guessed right!!!.......Farrow and ball autumn green is my currant fave!......I used a exterior green eggshell (calke green)......completely washable, with a 20% sheen level, on my garage recently........a 1980's marley cast concrete jobby........I was there for 3 hours wondering if the soffits (wood).or the end moulding (fibreglass gelcoat layup).....would dry first, and whether there would be any discernible difference in the colour saturation......a most satisfying afternoon well spent I would say.........must dash...off to see how my drainpipes are doing

    edbear, anything here you see of interest? I've put 'em up for valuation but not posted them as sales yet and I am always up for a swap of anything Webley related.
