Do these look leaky to you?
« on: May 04, 2022, 07:01:03 am »
Found this on eBay, unsure whether to buy, looks like the berries have leaked a bit.... there's only 3 per bun as well, do you think that's enough, should I increase to 4 or 5uB?

The icing I can clean up myself no problem, just cant work out if its 1w per bun, the layouts hard to follow, the side of one looks ever so slightly toasted, I can see how hes run it series/parallel with the centre bun at the top, so maybe one sides gone down,

There's a little bit of loose icing on the plate.... :dontknow:

Strange looking Mullards..  :laugh:    I see these errors all the time on ebay and elswhere..   etsy  reverb etc.   Speaking of ebay I needed to contact customer service for a problem I had with a delivery, got connected with an agent and the problem was resolved.  Later I noticed in my phone log an incoming call from country code 44 and went to investigate the call because I don't think I received any calls from the UK. Was I surprised to find that it was the call back from ebay customer service..  wow!  Thank the stars that I was on my VOIP.  It was an 11 minute call and that could have been quite expensive on my cell.
Just a heads up for you all.
