One or two imperfections on a couple of the Cinderella items but still nice and with a bit of value too.

Tonight, I have been preparing for the big moment.......








Tomorrow they will all go in the Londonbus Hat and the winner will be drawn by a very special person !

Yikes! Just saw the news! The last time I won anything, I was 14 years old in Asheville, North Carolina, and won $5 from the newspaper for guessing the score of a long-forgotten football game.

A bodacious "You're welcome" to all the Thank-You's. My grandpa would have said, "Even a blind pig sometimes finds an acorn." Now that's country!

It's not quite clear if the sheet of 240 Machins is part of the prize or not; IF IT IS, I will donate it back for Londonbus to auction, with the proceeds going to support this website.

As for prizes, I will select Prize #1, the eight blue 2d. QV stamps.

Thanks everyone.
I'll certainly do another Donation auction for you Doyg, no problem. And thanks for the gesture.
The 'Blues' will go into your packet.

BAD NEWS.

I am just managing to write this in lots of pain as my back has gone the way of MrLovell's, so all packets will leave these shores a little late. My apologies, but I find it very hard to sit.

Those who have not been notified of payments, will be contacted in the next couple of days.

Once again my apologies for the inconvenience.

Londonbus1

Holmes

Now, Mr. Bus1, may I call you 'London'?
Londonbus1

Of course.
Holmes (pacing impatiently)

Now, London, you have told me that yesterday you baby-sat, and that today you suffer back pains, have I understood correctly?
Londonbus1

Yes, that is...
Holmes

...Ah, Dr. Watson! Just in time! London here tells me that yesterday he baby-sat, and today, back pains. What say you, my good Doctor? Curious, is it not?
Watson

If the babes are in elementary school...
Holmes

Elementary, my dear Watson???
Watson

...then my conjecture would be that they played horsey or badminton or lugged the sofa and recliner and dining table 'round to build a fort. Eh, London? Look me in the eye!
Londonbus1

Ummm...
