  1. Yes I read those with Amusement yesterday especially the guy buying from the big H direct and then giving out about the postage cost is more than Hattons but he still buys from them direct anyhow..... I must add that was on the Twitter or book of faces Release of Same.
  2. No Surprise really, shops in the UK are doing this also.
  3. Just got an Email from Rails saying my final lot is on the way, The IE Loco's, Say What I said to myself, I picked them up from Marks Last weekend didn't I. Looks like I ordered 124/129/134 Twice...Ooops. The visa is not gonna look pretty next month.

  6. Racking me brains on this one and came up with this, A Classic from 86. Soon to become a thing of the past.
  7. If you are every in Fermoy pop into the Blackwater Makers, Some Smashing stuff for sale. I got this for my 50th last August, Best of both Worlds! I note the Artist did not go through the torture of the Lozenge Camo Pattern , Did that on a RC D.VII some years back only for it to collide mid air with a Pup. I blame me dad!

  12. Picked 3 IE Jobbies in Marks Yesterday, Great to see a few of the mates in there and to have a chat with them for a short while. Also An Oxford Rolller and Tar Cart was nabbed, Sucker for anything with a Chimney!

  16. A hero of Mine, 1st man to go Supersonic and what a life story, Worth reading if you come across it. He Certainly had the right stuff. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-55225903
  17. Word is it will be harder to get things into the UK than the other way around at the moment so no surprised there with that news. Temporary measures I wonder as staff to cover ll this extra work will be immense!
  18. Should have the visa just about paid off in May!! Thankfully I have enough UK stuff so don't need anymore although becoming impressed with German Steam and was thing a PIKO Starter set for a small plant would be nice. Looks a bit ala Railroad though.
  19. Oh Never thought of that!! New hobby for me then!
  20. "we can get a financial breather between now and May " You hope....... I somehow don't think IRM will be sitting around for 5 months doing nothing before thinking of other extraction methods of cash from the wallets in exchange for wonderful rolling stock.
  21. Commercial traders ok but collectors with 50 , that pushing the boundaries! As the man says when you pop the clogs there will be swarms of lads coming down to do the Missues a Favour and get rid of the pesky toys for you, As long as that all it is! Three Cheers from An Post TBH Great set an lovely Post missus here in Conna!
  22. How do you actually know that Noel? 50 locos is 10K. Mind you if you had the cash to do it you would have most likely a better return that the Savings banks. The Way things are with Limited stuff now is going nuts take the Olivias train Hornby 3rd class coach for the Stephenson Rocket. https://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/150512-new-hornby-rocket/page/66/ Just not Cricket ol chap. Would not mind 2 extra to renumber but if they are gone there gone, Maybe PM will do another run of different numbers at some stage, nothin stopping him doing that at some stage, ching Ching.
  23. LOL I expected a Laser cut Log Cabin! Well wear mate,, Its nice to have a 2nd home!
  24. Plus the fact now in Ireland deliveries are being subbed out to Taxi driver, Like they will care. DPD are doing this reckon. Buddy of mine witnessed in his avenue loads boxes being lobbed out roughly onto the road before he dropped them to the end user. He was looking out for he 121 delivery and was bricking it that it might be in the delivery! What a line up 20 years ago one would be dreaming of models of that quality instead of whacking together great lumps of white metal!
  25. You can pre purchase them as they aint in stock and they take the cash straight away!
