:-k X246B tanks as rare as hens teeth? - Tilley have been making them since 1964 so there ought to be plenty about. Unfortunately 3-4 years ago I...
You're right Mike, I probably should have put ;) :lol: at the end - which I usually do. My apologies. We're obviously not understanding each...
Yes, that would do it - good thought... :thumbup:
Yes, I generally use the shank-end of a close-fitting drill-bit. They're possibly a little brittle but I haven't managed to snap one yet. A length...
Lovely thing - what a find! :D/ IMHO, you'd be nuts to light it...
Yet, according to you, censorship "reeks" and is something you find distasteful. You can't have it both ways, Mike! :) For information, here's...
Ah, yes, this reminds me of the Tilley BF1 I found and have hanging in my garden to this very day. I must get round to to restoring it one day......

Not curious at all. Simply two different sellers asking what they think they can get away with in their respective countries - a point I was...
Good question! - I'd have to go and have a look but I've none to hand at the moment. Without doing that, my best guess would be that the springs...
Someone will have just swopped it for the earlier (better) version... It's easy enough to tell the difference between the X246, a and B series:-...

:-k Because they were an ignoramus... ](*,) I'm now wondering if someone with a lathe and knurling (or whatever) tool could restore that... [-o<
Scaling up then, the Egyptians just need to use two camels - one on the bow and the other on the stern. Obvious when you think about it, so why's...
