Hi USL and welcome to the most knowledgeable site for these sorts of machines in the universe, you will find a good deal of very interesting information disseminated over this site. A very nice looking British Manufacturing Co wall machine you have there. No doubt our intrepid overseas reporter John...

Come on BP, if it were not for these interesting little problems presented to you in order to overcome and successfully surmount in your inimitable and most efficacious way, what would you do with your spare time?
(I must admit though there are some right w**kers out there).

Me too John, and not a slot machine in sight

Slot machines have always had the capability to rearrange lives, so to have words.................

the eyes: rearranged = they see

slot machines: rearranged = cash lost in me

desperation: rearranged = a rope ends it

I may be wrong bp but I thought they were always pine, I do recall Nigel saying that he chose China for the manufacture because (at that time) it was much cheeper, including the shipping.
