Now if they were 53ft that would be worth going for.

Can you just confirm a couple of important points so that we can all sleep easily tonight. Is the inc. vat price above or below the ex. VAT price. And what point is the font for each? It's important to know this so that we are not mislead. Also, where it states "NO VAT ON THIS ITEM" - is it definitely all upper case or do they use camel case ?

It's important we get the facts right here, otherwise blood vessels may burst and urine may be boiled.

Surely that should be to hell? Nowhere is more hellish than Croydon is it?

It is often worth spending a few minutes watching people in the car park playing Tetris trying to fit everything into their cars.

Mums & Dads with the look of 'where the hell am I going to put that' when the 53" bear gets outside is also fun.
