Patrick Davey Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 It’s bad enough from the outside, with the anticipation etc, but it must be agonising from within IRM Towers as they count down the seconds - they know what’s coming but can’t say a word until the time…… if I worked for IRM they would have to lock me away until the announcement as I wouldn’t be able to contain myself 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Shrives Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I would love to know if the pixels shown will be available as 21mm gauge spare parts as a 16.5 gauge pixel regardless colour could be useful to many but FS 21mm will help some as well. I have been collecting pixels for a while now and have been considering 10.5mm ones as well as it gives a chance to use my 2mm stock with a little work. Off for a coffee now and a 1:1 scale biscuit.

Broithe Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 It seems to me that there's just no need for all this trauma. There's enough of 'us' and we have enough information between us, to just kidnap one of 'them'. Then, either :- If we have one that they actually want back, we trade him for the information we want. Or, if we find we've got one they're not that bothered about, then we should have enough bits of wood from old layouts to just beat it out of him. It just needs a little bit of organisation - and, maybe, some ear defenders. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel someone is going to sitting in the bushes near Blackrock tonight with a telescopic lens to try and see what's being unloaded into the IRM stand..! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
