They don't try very hard in my experience. Took my details, promised a brochure in the post and never heard another thing. Lucky escape probably. :lol:

Quick review.

Volvo life paint = S h i t e

Unless you use a full can per garment per ride/wash it's hardly noticable

a beer growler
A what? I feel I'm missing something, although I don't drink so it sounds like it may be of no use to me.

Bugger all has arrived here, I've just had confirmation the Hermes have managed to take a parcel to Germany rather than Wales :roll:

It's a two pint flask that store's beer in it! Think of a metal grosch container. Great if you go to a pub and like a beer they have on tap but you're driving. It's a present for my dad, so hopefully it will get some use :lol:
