Sample sale - bits that don't fit

Posted on
  • I bought a pair of size Small armwarmers from the Rapha sample sale (black sportwool with full-length reflective strips and pink pull-tabs).

    They come up pretty small, so don't fit me. I'm asking what I paid, £10 (collected in London, or posted elsewhere). They look in immaculate condition, and are £35 on the Rapha site.

  • how small is it for you? you're skinnier than me, but taller. is it too tight or too short or both?

  • i know. dunno why i even bothered

  • I'm interested!

  • I'll ave em.

  • curses.

  • hehehe

  • 'bought'

    or 'brought home'

    Come on, Platini. Do I have to do all the work round here?

    No, you don't, but then again, neither do I.
    I was concentrating on posting my hilarious joke...

  • I must have missed that :p

  • i saw you there, Simon, first into the scrum. brave man.

  • Do I have to do all the work round here?

    Either around or 'round, isn't it? ;p

  • I got a medium lonsleeve jersey in sky blue if anyone's interested. Think I'd be better off with a large but there wasn't really space to be trying things on at the sale!!! Worn for a couple of hours at the pub. Ideally I'd like to swap for a large if anyone also got a wrong size.

    Will take the same as I paid, £50. And can deliver/meet in London.

  • sorry, longsleeve before anyone corrects me. I know what you're all like!

  • Jersey sold

  • Either around or 'round, isn't it? ;p

    teenslain, you knew I'd have to address this, didn't you?

    They're interchangeable*, particularly amongst English users of English, rather than Americans. The apostrophised version is wank.

    With hindsight, I'd say my choice of "work round" was a subconscious avoidance of the noun " a workaround".

    In the end, you'd have to ask Jaki Graham for the definitive answer.

    *don't question my spelling here, or I'll dead you right up with more righteous graphemes.
