Well...on reflection, "french" may make no sense...

Khal's text on the other side (if there is any) may be written in Australian!

My Mum gave me one just like that when I was little to take to school...lost it unfortunately...but it had french writing on the back, telling the power and speed or something? Don't know where Mum got it...and I have no idea where it is now...

yep the writing is French. I almost bid on it myself. Good that someone "local" got it.

What a coincidence - I was down in the south island of New Zealand last month and went into a junk shop with my wife and while she was poking around I noticed a set of 5 glasses.
One was exactly the same as khal's and the other four were - Audi 200 turbo, Jaguar XJ6, Ford Pinto and a Nissan 280Z, The last two were sort of funny to have in this set, I only wanted to buy the Porsche one but the guy would only sell the set (he admitted breaking the 6th one but couldn't remember what it was) - ended up buying all five and paid a bit more than Khal - NZ$20 for all five.

Well, I think Khal ought to give it back to Chris24. It's obviously the one his Mum lost!
