Default Curiosity Corner #317: Temporary Rubber devices.


(Ahem, no sex please. I'm British)

This should make collectors of British Honduras salivate.
Tasty treats from a tragic past, which includes the Post Office burning
down,
The Governor being killed by a falling flagstaff,
and the Temporary Rubber Device (TRD) being faulty (hehehehe)
"BRSTISH"

Enjoy the yarn, and check those postmarks!

Hmmm... is there a hidden meaning to this?

Well you probably don't get the TV series "Extra's"
in the US.
Recently one episode was screened with Harry Potter
attempting to chat a young lass in the refreshments bus.
He fails, and talking to his sidekick, pulls out a
"temporary rubber device" stretches it, it flips out
of his hand and lands on top of Diana Rigg's head.

It was very funny
(you had to be there

I think Americans have other names for them.
