'Sheep At Any Price'?

[Richard A Thackeray]

I just had to buy 'MB-UK, to get this 'Headset Cap'

For those who don't know, Mint Sauce is a (slightly surreal) cartoon strip, that's been around for 30years
I think I first saw it in 1990, at the latest
I was going to put it on the Gran Fondo, but. it compliments the top-tube sticker on the CGR

Was always a big fan of Jo Burt and Minty. I might have to pop to my local newsagent.

Be warned @Milkfloat
There are 2 caps in the special packages; Mint & 'another' - only 1 per package
(make sure you get the right one)

"Choose wisely, my son....."

If you both look at my pictures, & the left-hander, where it's still in the packet, you'll see the other design
There's no indication, until you open the package, as to which cap you receive, hence the 'Choose Wisely'

I opened one, & it had 'Minty goodness' inside

Ohh, a gamble. I am not normally a gambling man.

I'm still working on it not track down the right one. Lucky the tape on the pack reseals just fine if your careful

Having had no luck I told Mrs 73 about my quest and fell for old mint and co. She was out this morning anyway but found time to hunt of one took her a few go's and a bit of drive out.
But she's come home with not one but 2

One's heading for the London Rd and one for Mrs 73 FX.

I've got the same sticker on my Zesty, and the key ring serves as a lucky talisman on my camelback. I craftily opened all three copies of MBR in my local Morrisons and they were all the "Ride More" ones. So I might try Tesco's tonight during the weekly shop.

 

[tom73]

Good Luck I checked all 7 in our Morrisons and no luck.

I thought you already had two? Now you're just being greedy.

I have that's how many I checked with no luck before my luck changed

Huzzah! My trip to Tesco was a success. There was a Mint cap in the first mag I opened so I didn't even have to furtively shove it to the back and try another.

 

[tom73]

Nice one

Just got back from Sainsbury’s. I don’t look at the mags, but I just happened to pass by them having read this thread about half an hour earlier. I opened one of the packs and there it was the little sheep thingy.

I wasn’t about to spend 7 quid on it though, feck that.
