No, C70/V70 are different.
I have emailed 4 possible members from abroad, ho have my personal details and might have ordered them for forwarding. 3 replied back saying NO, so only our mad Aussie friend left to get back to me. If he says no, then I start a sale bonanza..... lol

You have the opportunity to repeat a famous saying of your ancestors, if someone later demands you hand them over
"Molon labe !"

As I said, there are only four people here in the forum that I have been forwarding them UK orders abroad. I am surprised of how many people are interested in these by the way

As my username may suggest, I've always been a student of the ancient world and I try to learn what lessons of it are relevant. Few are more so than Leonidas ;-)
Can't get my head around the hellenic alphabet though so apologies for leveraging lesser latin letters ;-)

Cool. It;s not exactly the easiest alphabet or language to learn and not sure if it is useful any more either. But it's good to know and even greater if you like reading, as it is a very rich language. Only problem though is that I am forgetting it slowly slowly as I hardly get the chance to use it

I'll have a grill too if any are left unasked at this point and they become available. Thought I'd add that as we were meant to be discussing car parts...

Dx a lot of Greek and Latin words are in the English language apparently we sound very Germanic to outsiders. The Greeks and Romans were the people and cradle's of civilisation, the original inhabitatants of Britain the celts used to trade with the Greeks and Romans. The celts weren't backward either when you see monuments like Stonehenge it remains a mystery how they got those blue stones from Wales to the middle of Wiltshire nobody has ever found the answer.
Proberly inspired aswell from Greek and roman building. They saw the pillars and buildings and built Stonehenge. Last edited by kieran40; Nov 17th, 2014 at 19:30. |

Very clever of the Celts to be inspired by Rome 1350 years before the founding of the city ;-) (assuming conventional logic of Stonehenge main ring being approx 4100 years old and Rome founded 753BC)
