Not that difficult to trade away Steve. You have my defectives list. There is
the Boris Diplomat (with the digit missing), the Portachess (held together, more
or less, by chewing gum), the MGS/Sargon (with the dim display), CC7 (display
segment missing), Boris Master (currently in bits)...........the list is long
and distinguished.

I think there must be something there that is an honourable trade for a Robot
with a wonky arm. What about 2 of mine for your one? Or a surprise bundle?

The next move is yours but I am getting really keen on this idea.

Defectively yours
Mike
