    Send me a box of Ferrari rockets.

    And I will send you the latest Webley Pair display case (contents not included) These are not in the shops yet and delivery depends on how sick I get in production

    Nice pair. The Webleys fit so perfectly width-wise, I'm wondering whether the box designer based it around the guns.

    Good excuse to indulge, anyway. Trouble is, my old Webleys already have boxes.

    Yes, that's the idea, send me the unopened item with a self-addressed postage paid box and I will do all the necessary conversion work.

    I'll also send you some of those rice crispie things the grandkids make in their playgroup, to eat while you make the conversion. Taste the same but probably more nutritious than the dubious contents of the packet.

    In your absence Mate, I have taken on some major engineering projects, not all of them up to this standard and the orders have been few

    As long as the Ambassador of Leeds has them on his Embassy table like in the TV advert, they will be gratefully received and faithfully applied

    So, will this be the inspiration for chocolate Webley pistols as a Christmas present? I can see various fillings, noisette, praline, that white gunge they have in those curly cones, cherry brandy liquer.... etc.

    A very nice box, it's a shame the pistols spoil it.

    Ah the nostalgia

    As a young teenager, my first air pistol was the Mk1 from 1925. I bought from the dustman who found it in a bin and spent happy weeks replacing things to get it going again. Delighted to see that at least some still survive.
