french_disko Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 You should have kept your mouth shut, I didn't know there was a cardboard version!it's a limited edition that was available to a select view (ie, not me!)i'm still trying to work out the best way to "harden" my paper version so it won't rip. multiple paper layers? laminating? glueing to cardboard?

Graeme Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I need to get a replacement! I tore my (paper copy) opening the envelope! Can we pay for an upgrade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cynic Posted January 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I sent the paper ones to folks in the USA (first wave of postings). My own one is a paper one, and I'm going to laminate mine next week at work....I could probably sneak a couple more through the machine before anyone notices! (costs me next to nothing at work...but not free, sadly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Apparently the Boddamers got there first.....the story is that a French ship got wrecked, and the Boddam folk though the monkey was a french spy, but the facts (??) are that a ship DID get wrecked, with a monkey being the sole survivor. Salvage rights could only be claimed if there were no survivors, and the Boddamers weren't sure if the monkey counted or not, so they hanged it, just in case.An English music Hall entertainer heard the tale, and made it into a song about Hartlepool characters, so they have claimed the dubious monkey-hingin' glory From the EE today:http://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/Article.aspx/1023987 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
