I'd say the Ruby one is Pat. 9857 c 1978- 80 5".  The Kingfisher one doesn't seem to conform to any of the catalogue sizes or indeed shape.

Nearest would be 9609 which is catalogued at 7", it is most likely right but it does look a bit odd to me.  Have a look at my Knobbly Blog........

And BTW, if anyone has a Kingfisher 9845, they'd like to go to a good home   ::)  please let me know !!!!!   :thup:

Liskeard almost without fail have LG moulded or impressed into the base.  No, Keith's does appear to be Whitefriars in colour and the knobbles look right, it just doesn't quite seem to conform to either the earlier shapes or the later shapes, nor in size.  But, hey, they were all blown so quite possible it is just an "odd bod"!
