I know this is not a traditional auction site but,
Who will bid for this second hand brass Tiger. It has been seen all around the world and is slightly damaged (but not by us).
Bids???

Swap it for one tastefully repainted (but not by me) roaring cookie jar with added Pegasus wings...

Brass tiger home and dry.
Better to live one day as a tiger than a hundred years as a swift - and you my feathered friend are approaching day 363 of your 99th year.
WATCH OUT

...and better to live one day as a Pegasus than a lifetime as a tiger.

EESDL, Thanks for taking the Tigger onwards around the world on his travels. Hope he got some good pics in Afghanistan!
The poor blighter had spent 9 months face down in a tri-wall at AKR care of the movers before they bothered to inform me of his plight and I managed to set him off on his travels..... Better treatment than he ever got from those 230 Sqn Pukes though!
I don't think he's missing them much.... <img src="cool.gif" border="0"> <img src="cool.gif" border="0"> <img src="cool.gif" border="0"> <img src="cool.gif" border="0"> <img src="cool.gif" border="0">

Ah, Bigley old chap.
I'm not buying that manky old thing. Look, it's tails been stuck back on. I'd take it back if I were you. Do you have the receipt still? Scrap value only I fancy.
May be you could melt it down with the Wessi and make some nice lustrous cooking pots. They'd fetch far more money...
Regards,
