  34. It's a trick, you ask your friend if they would like a drink and you bring him or her that glass and when they take a gulp there's nothing there lol it's funny :)
  35. I don't think it's Leather more like hessian material with a black Lacquer on it.
  36. There's no holes in the Plastic cover ?
  37. I'm not sure, the best I could come up with is that the barman has to unlock the top and Manually get a pack out, but that would be abit time Consuming I would think. So your guess is as good as mine
  38. It's named after the wood that is bent around the trunk. Some later trunks are not bent but Joined together which are not that good.
  39. Thanks trunkman :)
  40. Yes That's what they are Commonly know as a bentwood trunk in the uk. I've got two of these but this one is the better one.
