| 5 Months, 5 Trades, One Bottle Of Beer & VW Campervan! Fantastic... | | 2007-01-02 13:22:00 | | Yes that's right in just under five months and only 5 trades I have managed to complete the Lincoln GrALE Trade Quest by swapping my bottle of Limited Edition 'Lincoln GrALE' Beer for a 1980 Red VW Devon Campervan,I've gone from this...
