JTP 221 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I thought it would be easier if we could have all the bids in one thread.

4MenHadADream 122 Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 It's important that we have as many viable bids as possible. Whyte was the only contender last time and the consequences were disastrous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
