Bible giveaway

[metcalfer]

Today I part exchanged my beautiful TVR Chimaera 450 for a Ferrari 355, and have held on to my first edition of the 'Bible' (see www.tvrbooks.co.uk). As I don't really need it I have decided to give it away to someone on PH. I'm paying for the postage so to get it completely free you're going to have to prove that you own either a Chimaera or a Griffith, which means a little bit of work.

I need to see a picture of you sitting in the driver's seat of your car (which must be either a Chimaera or a Griffith) with a teaspoon in your left hand, and a sign in your right hand. The roof must be off (targa allowed), and written on the sign should be a clearly legible message saying "Please give me your bible".

First one to reply to this thread with a working link or inlined picture gets it.

I'll post to the UK only.

Now is there anyone keen enough to do that....

Cheers,
Richard.

I guess this just goes to show that not everyone has the same sense of humour.

Never mind.

As there were no takers, and to kill the controversy over whether it was actually funny or not, I'll send it to Shredder as he's a new owner and that seems a fitting place for it to go.

Shredder, please e-mail me through my profile with your mailing address. Can't promise you'll see it before Christmas, but it will be on its way.

I didn't mean to wind any of you up...

Richard.

PS You're not a Gideon are you?

No, but maybe if the Gideon used a tvrbooks Bible instead of the sort they use now, the world would be a better place!

According to “simpo two” the value of the book is £10 so I will forward a cheque to you (made payable to any charity) for £10 if you choose to take me up on the following: To get the cheque/cheques I need to see a picture (with a working link or inlined picture) of you sitting in the driver's seat of your car (which must be either a Chimaera/Griffith/F355) with a teaspoon in your left hand, and a sign in your right hand. The roof can be off if possible, and written on the sign should be a clearly legible message saying "Please give me your cheque." The above offer is also applies to anyone who has posted above who seriously believes this was a joke (one cheque each screen name). Surely anyone with a sense of humour would not deny a charity this money at Christmas? Merry Christmas to all, closing date 31/12/2003 Ivan

I'm not entirely sure what the problem is here. This was a bit of 'fun' not a 'joke' - the difference being that I fully intended to post the book to anyone who did this.

As it happens, no-one wanted to do it so I decided to send the book to the first chap who looked like he might really want to have it and would find it useful.

If you didn't want to do it you didn't need to do anything other than move along to the next thread. Talk about making mountains out of mole-hills...
