Are you going to sell it by the gas metre, or by a parking metre?

or are you just stringing us along?

I can sell by the 1/2 metre & gift wrap, however I will need to use the other 1/2 metre to do the wrapping, so the price will be the same.
I might sell some on "Ebay" - money for old rope!

When I was a little biddy boy
My grandma bought me a cute little toy
Two Silver bells on a string
She told me it was my ding-a-ling-a-ling

Scruffy bit of string goes into a bar and asks for a drink. The barman looked him up and down and said 'I can't serve you, you're a piece of string'. The piece of string looked indignant, 'No, I'm afraid not!'














I'll get me coat.

Typical! Give him 0.0254m and he'll take 1602.3744m. The string should be im454grammed.

What is the guage of the string?

Are you sure it isn't twine?

When you prepare a length for shipping, do you re-ball it after you de-ball it?
