  1. I can smell that from here!! ugh!
  2. Get some Accelerator Noel. work wonders. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Blaster-Cyanoacrylate-Accelerator-DELUXE-MATERIALS/dp/B00TPTLDKS
  3. Managed to catch it this am heading out, Couple of ol shots this am. Hopefully nothing else caught on the trip out
  4. No customs Duty mate on Models, Just VAT upon importation to Europe so post Brexit if you buy in the UK there will be no UK Vat Applied so that will be applied upon importation here and maybe a Processing fee so if our friends in Revenue let one or two slip through then quids in. In relation to the Irish RRP, The reason the price is lower in the UK is mostly due to wealth of competition, There is mostly none here so of course no discounting for the Punters, So Full Price please Sir for the time being until maybe year or so of them sitting on the shelves when they drop 30 notes or such. Irish people are used to paying over the odds at this stage, From Panadol Tablets to Cars but perhaps that.s for another forum altogether.
  5. Nice one! The Vid looked Fab, At the 06 end you can get lovely shots. The Fence used to be about 3ft high in the 90's.
  6. Grahams did a good deal on the 141's a few years back if you bought a few together. If the local retailers did a deal on a 'Bundle' then I am sure it would pay off and custom would stay at home, Say 5-10% of the first 3 if you buy together, custom will come back then. €65 notes is quite an amount to save on the first 3 locos if you shopped around. Don't think anyone is boasting, Noel is just putting the info out there. As for Sea Freight, Month and a bit depending on Rotterdam Transfer. We are not seeing any delays but Cost hikes, the urgent containers are coming by Rail.
  7. You can track in on this link: https://www.flightradar24.com/ADB3429/24aa823b
  8. On the Rumor mill for the past couple of days, No A Classes on Board or 121's either before you ask. I am off for the week, Sweet says I, except the Car does not agree with the idea and wants a visit to the flipping Garage.. https://flyinginireland.com/2020/06/worlds-largest-aircraft-to-visit-shannon/ The world’s largest aircraft and only six engined transport plane is due to pay an overnight visit to Shannon on Tuesday 9th June and depart the following day. The Antonov An-225 Mriya will be bringing in cargo to be off loaded at Shannon. The crew will stay overnight for a rest period and depart empty to its home base of Gostomel Airport, Kiev in Ukraine. The aircraft has been operating extensively in recent weeks carrying PPE (Personnel Protective Equipment) from China and Japan to Canada via Anchorage. The aircraft will have a very busy day on the 9th June, it is due to leave Almaty International Airport in Kazakstan at 01.00 (GMT times) and fly to Baku with an arrival time of 04.30. It will then continue on to Leipzig in Germany at 06.30 with an expected arrival time of 11.30. After a two hour stopover, it will depart for Shannon where it is expected to arrive at 16.45 (local time) on Tuesday afternoon. Currently, the aircraft is scheduled to depart Shannon at 14.30 on Wednesday afternoo
  9. God knows what the price of these would be on a re run with the Baccy Price hike.
  10. Dats the Job, Bit of Luke Kelly or such fine but the music you had did not justify your hard work and Fab Layout! You should lay over some city sounds at some stage.
  11. Nice Vid, Shame bout the Music!
  12. I've ran about 2 of mine the rest of Mine little collection. Yes they could be classed as Pre owned however never ran, never out the box, some are in the Tissue and are technically brand new. If you are stuck for one you got to pony up I'm Afraid. A new run could possibly be up these at 190 quid now given the pricing these days.
  13. Better let Sams Trains know someone has already done an unboxing video. albeit 52 seconds long against a 20 odd minute he would do.
  14. 4 hours in the garden nearly 100 knots, 3 beers and a Scorched back and the Rat lines are now done. worst job of the whole thing I reckon. Winch is wrapped up with some lovely cable. Sets it off nicely along with a Hand pump for the oil drum
  15. Ops test in the Test Tank. All systems are go and ballasted.
  16. I Have a digital copy if that suits?
  17. Fine job on the chair, It will be a bit hard on the posterior! And well done on completing University, Now for the University of Life!
  18. A nice Super Steamer now would be lovely from the Lads in Green. Is the Movement is starting Finally!
  19. Mission Scrubbed due to bad weather, typical when we have Gin clear Skies. Alls not lost for Skie Gazers as the ISS is due along with a 20 train of Satellites at 2256
  20. The USA back in the Business of Launching spacemen: Launching @ 2133 tonight and live here: https://www.nasa.gov/nasalive The Dragon capsule will pass over the UK at 21.50. The ISS will precede it 15 minutes earlier.
  21. Slowly Slowly does it, Weathering complete. faded the hull so looks kind of used and perhaps more pity and love will be shone upon here in the Pond, The ol fella is 75 tomorrow but still need the final bits to come through so not complete for his Birthday, the rocket pack never came through and the back up plan of a Balsa wood Comper Swift and free flight glider also do not materialise so it is going to be 2 packet os Bassets allsorts for now Few Piccies for now.
  22. Hard Graft in a Shop, Looks at Marks, Nearly Every weekend the lads are out and about in shows etc , tough ol station and hard to claw a few quid in against the online offerings these days. I do like shops though, Internet is cold.
  23. Corr Noel will be jumping in here for these biggo, Bullseye for his eara. The Grain certainly will add a bit of colour!
