Does anybody remember while serving in Germany a company that used to set up in the cookhouse selling clothes and such like?, What was the name of the company?. I have to confess I bought some seriously dodgey clothes from them and spent an absolute mass of cash ! :shock:

Yeah I remember that crowd Tam, but I think they were a different outfit (excuse the pun). This firm sold the crappiest gear around for the most extortionate prices, and daft young bloods like me bought the stuff :roll: , probably coz is was convenient :oops:
I remember these guys! They used to pull up in a big white van and unload the most amazing rubbish! I bought a quilt cover with a naked lady on it (I was only 20 odd!) and it turned out it was a trans-sexual! I have no idea what they were called but we used to call ours "Man At Centre Stairwell" as he put up his pitch midway between the cookhouse, SSAFA and right underneath the main staircase for the singlies.
Did they ever have a name? Going on the responses above, I'm beginning to doubt it! Good post Bomber!!
Would you tell people your real name if you sold crap like that???
