      ...I wonder if that's just a recording of the soundtrack from the Ray McGregor documentary, Chris? From memory that must have been about 50 minutes long, and basically comprised McGregor interviewing Stephen Knight. If anyone's interested in buying one of these cassettes, they'd better ask the seller first.
      Kind regards, Sam Flynn

        Hi Gareth
        A good point and it's always best to check
        I've rechecked the Ebay page and it doesn't say anything about the point you make
        All is says is that three copies are available
        Chris

          I thought the same. There have been copies of this put up on eBay about once a week for six months now.

                    Mind you.....

                    for such a load of rubbish you've got to admire the blokes research and presentation. He's got some good illustrations to accompany the advert.

                      Truly amazing........

                      WHY did I bother to read that sales blurb right to the end is probably more worrying than the dread djinn.........nasty thing though.......or was I just being 'influenced' by the blurb?

                        I am working on a similar ring, and adding "H Division" to it, to be worn on the next finger across! The amazing thing is, someone somewhere, will buy this tat!

                          Oh my God... don't they go on???!!!

                          Sounds like they're emptying the attic - a Tibetan dagger to which is welded a toy from a cracker, a couple of sticks (from an Italian monastery my asre) and a pair of white gloves! White gloves?!

                          I love the bit about the dead and dying piled up on carts. I think they've seen MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL and decided it is an accurate reflection of Victorian London.

                          What a load of old cack.

                            Their not victorian white gloves, I saw them on a raver blowing his whistle and spinning his glowsticks to Force and Styles!!

                              Or I should say 5 suckers bid on this thing!
