    I don't keep my electricity in the fridge.

    Thanks Rob, I see the inconsistency.

    I'll be honest, I don't "get" this. Isn't this effect just from handling? The coin is spent, and fingers / trouser pockets etc contact the bust and obverse fields but the edge and legend prevent contact with the fields behind. The reverse is a busy design and again largely prevents the fields from being touched. I struggle to see this as being cleaned. If I'm wrong, tell me.

    That doesn't bother me, I don't think it's worth giving a grade on ebay - you just open yourself up to disputes.

    Yes, I've bought from him before.

    Nice coin, but I cringe when I see dealer's pictures taken in the hand like this.

    New penny variety - one for your website Richard?

    I also no longer use them after suspiciously winning lots at my maximum bid only. In fact, I don't even bother to look at what's on offer, less I get tempted. Are auction houses required to keep records of all bids made?

    Yes, obverse 7 for me too.

    ...is that they directly profit from the sale of fakes, so they pay nothing more than lip service to preventing it.

    F282, 7+G I think.

    I've spent a good few hours over Easter watching the solitary bees round the bug hotel. It's been like Biggin Hill some days. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rErO8E6WNMI Seeing them emerge into the world is quite satisfying: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q73F5LpcU1M

    Berberis fruit is edible so I reckon you'd be good.

    The only other one I know is "pack my bags with five dozen boxes of juicy liquorice". I'm sure there's a name for it - pan something I expect.

    Best I can do is 11: unawareness.

    Scroll up to my "Hawkwind" post! :p
