Matches Made In Heaven

I was leafing through the latest edition of Perruque et Corset magazine (it's one of Carmen's, she buys it for the competitions) when I spotted an interesting article for sale in the classified ads. I quickly became excited.




A 2ft long gypsy caravan made entirely out of matchsticks!

    Are the blow up doll and bonus fist still available? Uh, I'm asking for "a friend."

      Give them a call. I just hope it's been emptied.

    Yes, but how many points of entry does the caravan have?

      Just the one Scarlet, though the loss of wood before entry could be a result of failing to buy clothes pegs and lucky charms off a gypsy woman at some point in the past.

    160 quid for a caravan and only 60 for a doll(with a rubber fist)? I suppose that's inflation taking its toll

      I'm trying to decide if the "well used" refers to the points of entry or the doll as a whole. Either way it probably knocked down the price. The qypsy caravan, on the other hand, comes with furniture and lights. Lights!

      60 ONO there is scope to haggle Dinah.

      I suspect "well used" = not emptied, I bet it stinks as well. Dirty pigs.

      The caravan would look absolutely amazing on your shelf of shit with lights to boot.

    Nights are lonely in Ilkeston since the coal mines closed down.

    I do not want to have a rubber fist thrown at me, used or not.

    What means "60 ono" ? And who in his right mind would light a caravan made from matchsticks ?
    I always wanted an illuminated glass gondola, but they are not to be found these days.

      It means "Or nearest offer" not to be confused with Omo which was a type of washing powder popular with bored housewives in the 1950s, according to legend housewives would display a box of Omo washing powder on their window ledges in an attempt to lure passing tradesmen in for a bit of afternoon slap and tickle.
