No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

I guess that could be called a marriage of the old and the new! It is incredibly hideous but I have such bizarre taste and can quite see why you like it. Hideous can be pleasing at times. Now if some could ID the top part....
