Paper Clips
« on: January 23, 2010, 07:52:38 PM »
I seem to be overun with paper clips.

I started with a small box in 2003, but now I have millions of the bloody things.

Do they self breed when you are not looking? Same thing with wire coat hangers. You put one in your wardrobe and then when you go back there are 10 of them...spooky

I still have loads that I nicked from my British Gas days back in the 70/80's.

If you could find me some tippex and a few red felt tip pens I could do a swappsy with you. happy088

I purchased some paperclips just before Christmas can't find the wreched things now. I'll swap you a multitude of tiny weeny irritating sparkly green stars and several packets of pocket sizes tissues for some.
