does anyone here have a paypal account? I want to buy something from the UK and they wont accept my VISA, they say they cant check authorisation on it from there.
What I want will cost approx 22 pommie pounds or $55.
Bizarre ·
they use to give you $5 US to join up didnt they??

I've used PayPal without any problems...it's way easy and non messy
It's the person the other end that gets to pay the transaction cost.....
I paid an extra 3% on a pair of pop out from the US ...the guy didn't want to pay it.... It was worth it...hassle free..they get their money straight away and your goodies are sent ASAP...No running to get money orders done ...or transfering into a foreign bank account etc.... I felt it made the transaction smoother and safe

Thanks all. I'll look into it.
For now, I have found an agent in Perth. Tis good, cos I can ring up and talk. Gotta love different time zones 😀

Need to put up some of those accoustic pads on the wall. Really bad echo in here.
If I tell you what I am getting, then you will want one. Then Jen will want one. Then astro, frenzix, topless... it will be anarchy.

Dad was always playing around with poplular scientist making boats that sunk etc. So one day he bought "me" this. He bought it for "me" just like he bought my meccano and train set for "me" I think. My daughter found it a while ago and wanted to know what it was. Somehow the piston has went awol, so have to order another one. Mine isnt quite the same so I am hoping that the sizes havent changed or the spares are still available.

Is that one of those things you put cotton wool and metho in and blow things up? 😀 (vague memories from my childhood...)
amazer ·
if you're naughty. my burner wasnt sealed at the ends so didnt hold liquids. Had to use special little fuel blocks. Of course that didnt stop me from filling it up with paddle pop sticks.
Jay_1965vw ·
I think my uncles used to burn cotton wool dipped in metho.... so it wasn't like they poured metho in, just a little bit. I do remember they were very careful with it and I wasn't allowed anywhere near!
vw54 ·

jenz58 ·

:jesus you people!
Now Jen has the "Fraser" thing happening!
WHY was WHAT a silly moment?
I dont need paypal I got VISA.
Stop hijacking my thread with valla issues. So you are taking a BBQ up. Is that what you're saying? I can disconcern myself of all things BBQ?
amazer ·
I've known Birchall longer than you people. Cant listen to him.
Although at the BBQ I am willing to bet that nobody will stand a chance.

My you're a stubborn man Fraser! :jesus
Can't want that steam engine too much then...or love the stress of it all?
Fraser...have YOU done anything about this f!##!!g steam engine yet!!! :duh
.....:sandrine
.......:P
amazer ·
I've got no problems with Lee, think dave got a little intoxicated last year tis all.
Jenny Jenny, have you given up smoking? please go have another. I think you're losing it hon.
Havent done anything about it since the other day. Maybe tomorrow. I'm in no hurry, not taking it to nambucca. Everyone will want to play with it. If I give dave a go, astro will step in and demand he have a go. Frenzix will flop on the floor and throw a tantrum till he gets a turn. It will be back to anarchy and I dont like that.
:party only 1 week to go!!! guess I better go get rego huh.
