A salade? That's really interesting, a mix between the Australian Nature tube and the S&N models. Maybe it was an exclusive set.

This is REALLY a "salade" as Roger says Laughing

At first I was completely confused, - unlike Paige, I only know the models in the bottom group Shocked

Thanks, everyone.

We have wondered if this tube was originally made to be sold only in Australia.
