For instance I paid over £400 for a Webley valvespout oil tin earlier this year and some £500 for an original copy of the Book Of The BSA Air Rifle a couple of years ago. Neither have come up again and yes, I paid a fortune but both are very hard to come by items and I get a lot of enjoyment from them. I don't drink anymore so the way I look at it, they cost me a fraction of what I may have spent on entertainment before I gave up!
