Hi folks

I am new to the Artbox world, Mark and I had a very good helping hand from Ed/savage 727 but I still don't know much about it all...

so can you fill me in - is this new/rare because I haven't seen it before.

Grab it Roz ~ that's definitely a newbie card!  
It should fit in with the other LOTR flipz cards very nicely.
Dag nabbit missy ... I thought you weren't gonna tell me about anything else to buy!!

Actually ... taking a closer look at it ...

True you don't get the tin, but it might be cheaper for those of us this side of the pond to buy with the shipping costs etc on the tin!

That tin was released last year Roz, you'll just have to excuse my momentary lapse as I hadn't seen the tin before, only the card!
Personally I'd get it from the second seller as it should be cheaper ... just my manthoms worth you understand!

Roz (shouting from her deathbed as she has not eaten or slept for 36 hours and is now dozing on the couch) says she'd like the tin too And hopes Mr Breyer will do a good deal on the postage... and that I will buy her some nice biscuits to keep in the tin

Ha Ha Ha!!

I know I shouldn't laugh, but I had the vision of Roz draped elegantly on a chaise longue having her furrowed brow mopped and her every need catered to!  

Better get those chocolate Hob Nobs ready to put in the tin then Mark!  
Poor Roz ~ going unfed all that time and not sleeping either ... welcome to my neck of the woods m'duck ...... where we live on air and kindness!

*pssst* ..... go and FEED the poor lass!!

He hee that sounds like it rocks! Actually some friends of my parents have a chaise longue and it's SOOOO comfy - when I get a house I'd like to get one

Better get those chocolate Hob Nobs ready to put in the tin then Mark!  

Mark you'd best do what she says - this woman seems to have some very good ideas

welcome to my neck of the woods m'duck ...... where we live on air and kindness!

It certainly seemed that way - everyone was VERY kind and helpful to me from the bus driver to the lady who was scrubbing the floor by the entrance to my room door as I arrived (I don't think I've ever seen anyone on their hands and knees scrubbing a floor - you guys work too hard ), to the people who had organised the meeting

<-- is SO pleased ppl were helpful and friendly!
Sounds like things went well too .....

I'm usually the one who gets stopped in the street by some poor soul who hasn't a clue how to navigate their way through the horrible one-way traffic system we have here.
Even though I've lived here all my life and know a fair chunk of the city pretty well, the biggest problem I have is directing them through the labyrinth of streets and lane-changes they have to negotiate to get where they want to go.  
I'm mostly a pedestrian these days, but I do drive too and quite a lot of the time cars can't go where ppl can ..... most of the city centre is pedestrianised which doesn't help much either!

If ever you do decide to visit Derby Roz, then please let me know ... otherwise you might get lost on the inner ring road!
