I was banned because of cofusion regarding my rubber collection. But I still remember one idiot child who collected bottles of air. On the same show they had Concorde Captain who presented him with a bottle of air from 40,000 feet (or whatever height Concorde flew). The BBC gave airtime to a man giving a child an empty bottle to place with all of his other empty bottles. The idiot child was ecstatic. He also rejected my offer of a bottle of air from Tardis in return for his Astro Wars. Swap shop????? Nah TISWAS was the best 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
