Sheesh........seeings how this isn't a tire, gynological, electronics or semi-obscure rock and roll forum,  I didn't think there'd be so much confusion. Just glad I didn't post on the vasectomy forum!
That would be nuts.

Of course, there is a vas deferens between this and the vasectomy forum.

Tubed, not sure why? Last year I had to pick mine up at the SCTA trailer on the salt.

Okay, I will play. Being new the thread title "Tubes" got me interested.

If you are talking about a cardboard tube with a 2018 poster, a sticker and a hat pin then I got one of those about two weeks ago and yes, that's to the U.K.

If its some other type of tube then I revert to the newbie mantra; sorry, no idea, I'm new here.

A Bonneville Lakester please barman.
Certainly sir; a lick of salt, a sip of gas and a twist of Lemming. More Lemming sir?
Just a squeeze.

A Squeeze of Lemming it is sir.

Since ours seem to come via goat wagon, I guess this means the goat is tired from the long swim!  :-o :-D

The tubes have not reached here in the UK yet. It’s snail mail here!
