The founders of 'unique business oppurtunity' Obviously these are some kind of UPVC bottles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonguest Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 These are industrious Nigerians we're talking about. The founders of 'unique business oppurtunity' Obviously these are some kind of UPVC bottles. Good point. But couldnt they simply be painted? A small extra expense/effort admittedly. Though as for the bullet proof thing? Are they really claiming that the local thugs with, typically, AK47s and their high velocity bullets would be stopped by a few inches of sand? Is that possible??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
