Done

"Have you any proof that this is in fact the water that the whale popped his cloggs in, is there some sort of DNA proof or a certificate from a marine biologist or infact any whale dump in the water to back up this tale of mamalian woe and your shameful profiteering from it!"

Hope this helps

I only accept cash (sterling) and paypal. I've had a bad experience recently from the Congo, I foolishly agreed to send 1000 Huddersfield Town football shirts out there, COD. I'm still waiting.

Well, this just in - he's answered my question :

I have however recently sold 50 ltrs of same to Rochdale Hornets RLFC Social Club where the members have been happily using it with their scotch. I've had no reports of any negative consequences. Anthony Worrell Thompson is reputed to also be interested.

This gets better. THANK YOU ALL.

He is a top bloke who will handle it well. However he is VERY confused as to why so much interest has been attracted by the item.

He has narrowed it down to 2 or 3 people at work who may wind him up but he cannot understand how we have got so many usernames.

Please keep it going this is great!!!!

Q: Can you please confirm the volume of water this is for auction. Will their be free transportation I may be interested, as we are on a water meter.

A: Quantity, .5 ltr. You will be paying postage, see details. Don't fully understand what the water meter has to do with it unless your thinking of bathing, drinking & flushing the bog. I've already thought about a Wally Wall Banging Cocktail, so don't muscle in there mate or I'll set my Standard Poodle on you.

SOOPERB!!!
