Hello

As mentioned in a previous thread my interest in South African units was fuelled by the superb display of badges and buttons posted by Forum members.
I decided to investigate the pursuit of buttons, well this is my first purchase.
Aquired from our favourite aution site for the princely sum of 75pence so no problems if it not a good one!
I realised after I won it that I had several postcards to this unit, as always any comments or information welcome.
