Perfect for Valentines day..!!!..? - perfect for who?


Is there a collection going for SOMEONE here to buy one and send a webcam on utube for us all to see and hear it?.

...and don't you just dig the other items that customers bought on the sales website. Who buys that stuff?

...and more to the point, just how did anyone come across this site to discover it....clearly your Googling word choice is vastly different to mine.

I only found the website after seeing a full page advert for the Spitfire's egg in this week's TV paper. And was sufficiently intrigued to find out what other bits of tat they were flogging.





Honest....

I would LOVE to have that PR job !

Think of the possibilities; a Tornado mounted with an airliner above and ahead of it, a USMC Harrier wheels up on mattresses, and a working gibbet featuring a charicature ( unfortunately, there's a limit ) of the head of whichever service one selects...

Pontius Navigator 1st February 2009 13:13

1600 Quid for a set of diamond RAF pilot wings.....you would want to guarantee to get laid if you gave the 'sweetheart' one of those...

BEagle 2nd February 2009 09:23

£1600 for some kitsch piece of bitch-bling?

YGBSM!!

The Oberon 2nd February 2009 10:02

Could always settle for a pair of these I suppose.

Welcome to RAF Collection

Molemot 2nd February 2009 10:09

Pontious, old chap...thanks for the heads up on the Presidential Sculpture..now I know what to buy my Godson for his birthday. He already has the weapon and the aptitude.....

I was about to be smug about this - only the RAF etc etc - when I found this Clocks moving tribute to the marines:

Faithful Fuzzies Clock - A proud salute to the mighty marines

It's always a day to remember when the Faithful FuzziesTM are on paw-rade! These beloved bears are suited and booted in their dress blues and want to make your home their headquarters. Invite them in and proudly salute the courage, bravery and honour of the Marines, with the brand-new Faithful FuzziesTM Clock. This elaborate market-first clock evokes the regal atmosphere of a military parade ground with an impressive sculptural three-dimensional scene, painted by hand. Royal emblems, Union Jacks and a traditional army cannon add further authenticity to this unique masterpiece, which also boasts sound and motion…

... although I don't think that it has been officially endorsed by the RM ...

Just when you thought you'd seen the ultimate in poor taste, have a look at this:

Pilot's ring

No more lonely nights at a hotel bar in a downtown hellhole trying to chat up the ladies. Just sit there 'fingering your ring' and they should come running.

Available in 1, 2 and 3 stripe editions for those not yet up to command status..

I went out with a Captain in the WRAC once and her...... didn't look like that.

Wensleydale 8th March 2009 19:26

Is this what is meant by a "Scramble the Duxford Wing"?

BEagle 8th March 2009 19:46

Upon which part of the body is that thing expected to be worn....:ooh:

Maybe it's a 21st Century version of the Blakoe Energiser - those painful looking things which used to be advertised in Mayfair in the '70s??

Zirconium will spontaneously combust at high altitude.

Zirconium is a major constituent of modern day fireworks.

largely unheard of by the majority of jewellers

Zirconium, along with Titanium, is fast becoming the latest in a line of trends

fascinating surface transformation ability and hypoallergenic qualities.

Old established traditionalist jewellers who once balked at the idea of non-precious metal jewellery are now embracing the products - see above, its largely unheard of.

Precious metals will never be replaced by non precious as the material of choice
