A description would be good!

Forestfly · 11/12/2003 11:33

Oh i forgot to describe it, idiot
Its those grey 3D sculpture jigsaw things, you place bits of card one ontop of the other until you get a model. Things like a globe, or the thinker. Where do you buy then i've been on here for hours doing every search imaginable, thankyou

WH Smiths sell them - hth.

John Lewis sell them but I don't know if they have them on the website.

Forestfly · 11/12/2003 11:42

Thanks lou, but he specifically wants the grey ones, god knows why!
Dsw thanks, what does hth mean though!

Hope this helps.

Well I think a nice 3d model of Graceland in glorious technicolour would be great! Just saw one of those.

dsw · 11/12/2003 11:44

I think it means "hope that helps?" I have just picked it up from the site.

Jaybee · 11/12/2003 11:45

Just give him the Rovers, and tell him to be grateful.

Forestfly · 11/12/2003 12:38

Yes it serves him right for wanting such a crap present in the first place

OP posts:
Lou33 · 11/12/2003 13:18

Absolutely. How inconsiderate of him .

Forestfly · 11/12/2003 13:30

They sell the grey ones in Toys R Us if that helps.

salt · 11/12/2003 15:03

If you mean the layered ones that are built around a stick (type thing)?
