Fallen on hard times

  Having been out of work for over 2 years now and no income, I am having to resort to selling some of my stuff in order to pay for my WGT addiction so that I can carry on playing this game.  Because times are hard I have decided to hold a garage sale.  I have taken a photo of some of the items which are up for sale.  If anyone sees anything they fancy, please let me know and include how many credits you are prepared to give for it.  Or alternatively, simply send me some Callaway i(s) balls.  I never thought I would resort to begging, but when times become hard one turns to friends for help.  Anyway, here's the picture...

  Sorry Mio,

  I only have Nike's left.

  When they repo'ed the Roll's I had about 10 dozen Cally's in the trunk they wouldn't let me get'em.

  You got a good deal SM.  It cost me 3 sleeves of Callies i(s) for the rare white one.

  But Mio threw his old bike in with it.

Do we have a deal yet ?

  Ok Doc, take it, just take it, I'm not into bartering.

  Sounds like a line from My Cousin Vinny... great film!

  Andy - I didn't mean that one, that is a one-off custom-built special edition.  I was saving that one for someone special.  But now that you have it, keep it.  Just give me back the parcel that was on the driver's seat.  I hope you didn't open it, but if you did, please tell me you didn't try them on; those pink woolly knickers are not your size!  Or colour!

  Lizzie will kill me, I don't know how I'll make it up to her.  For months she's been saying she wanted that "white Lambie" (no silent b) as she called it - I'm not sure she realised it was only a Ferrari.  I'd better hide, I've heard she's just hired an apache.  But if the apache is still using bow and arrow, then I think I'll be safe.

  I apologize Mio, I did open the package on the front seat (I thought it was for me.) I did not try them on, I was tempted.  But after seeing the picture you enclosed for Lizzie.....

  

  I just sent both the knickers and photo on to Lizzie for you.

  BTW, do they itch?
