I will see Robert on 21st January at our club night and I'll see Patrick on 30th January at the Windsor toy fair, I'll see what they have to say about Mafwo toys.

Please be sure to give them both my warmest regards, and let Patrick know that I haven't forgotten that I still owe him a couple of pints (from around 1985!).

He probably won't remember but will certainly take up your offer, if a little over due... :D

Maybe we could do something about that, I am sure he would not mind you having His email address and while he drives, he is still a keen Cyclist so a trip to your neck of the Woods might be fun for Him.

If he doesn't mind, please let me have it so that I can get in direct contact with him again.

I see there is one on now that actually has 'MAFWO' cast into the underside.

I think only the later castings had the 'MAFWO' displayed, suggesting this may originally have been made for distribution by someone else or it is based on another company's casting.
