Hi Rogerfrench
Decades ago I did some work on an island off our coast. There was one general store. I had taken a clip board, pencils etc but forgot some items. I enquired if the shop sold rubbers. The American shopkeeper thought it funny. As there was not much else to do there, I suspect he sold many. (Incidentally the w.o.f requirements were not enforced so the cars on the island, including a couple of rentals, and with no sealed roads, were interesting....)
