As an olde Sgt. of mine used to say, "Pays to be a winner, Sir." Very excellently done you, couldn't happen to a nicer bloke.

Rev-O is a big fan of these kits and I can see why, it is always nice to find hidden treasure. Even selling off the razor you still have nice handy tubs for use or sale.

True, i already use 2 x tubes from a previous kit as brush holders, and a soap tin as a blade holder, they are spotless and have a nice art deco type pattern on them, goes very nicely with my stuff !!

Yeah, I buy lots of 'em - usually a Tech, occasionally a Rocket. It's usually a risk / gamble / punt.

Last one I bought had a small silk handkerchief; I later read they were used as prophylactics:

Careful does it Ollie - it might be a pygmy magician's silk handkerchief... wrap it around your goalie, Mrs Ollie says the magic words "not a lot", taps it and your goalie's been sent off!

You have to keep it.

That is probably the best 'score' I've ever read about (and that's from someone who grabbed a Gold #66 and Sticky for £25!)
