LOL Wanker... That's a great word.
No, I don't want to sell anything on here, I have an ebay account for that. I'm not racing for 150. Why, what does that get you? I just never knew that there were so many other people that loved Superstars like I do. Also, there are some people on here that have information I've been seeking about my precious #35. I am just so curious. I want to know everything about them...
Vista you say? I am in Oceanside in the Harbor. I have a spot on the beach here. You have to go 2 minutes past me and get on the 78 to get to Vista.
Maybe you'd stop for a beer. The owner of the pub I go to was very interested in my Anniversary #35 Superstars. I said I'd bring them for him to see at some point. I'm always in there. They've got great food. If you're interested one of these days, just let me know...
Thanks for the warm welcome,
Jay

Sorry about that King, sometimes we ENGLISH forget who invented this language.

The 20 I still have in the boxes have not been worn yet. A couple pairs are duplicates, so that when the ones I wear are ruined, I have another set to replace them. Some of the others are collectors shoes or shoes that I am waiting for the matching apparel to arrive before I sport them.
Again, I didn't mean any offense.
I will post some pics of my collection on here when I get some time.
Thanks for reading!

Brilliant thread this, the idea of us all googling adolph dasler and then being all shocked when we realised who it was is a particularly nice touch, as is the americans telling us how to speak english
(just joking US heads

)

Does the phrase "teaching ya granny to suck eggs" mean anything to you?
Anyway, welcome to SSDB Adolf. I think.

Well noted Mr Pure.
No offence King, you see this is coming from someone who's Welsh and we have a kind of history with the English like Texas does with Mexico.
But I can't deny it, Pure does make a good point.
Welcome to you A D.
