WRENNEIRE Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 One of the regular lads who attend the Bray show bought a 1960's Hammant & Morgan catalogue They were the Rolls Royce of the controller world back in the day It also contained a 1661 pricelist and a list of suppliers for the "British Isles" Low and behold there was Dublin listed with 3 suppliers Heleys, spelt incorrectly, of Dame St M Ascough of Lower Leeson St And the bould Cyril L. Fry of Churchtown Rd I never knew he was a retailer, I wonder what else he sold? Quote
Dhu Varren Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Seems to have been contagious. The last shop on the list posted by Wrenneire, George Smith of Elgin, closed many many years ago, and even the Toymaster store that succeeded Smiths has also disappeared. Quote

murrayec Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Hi All Sean is in the shop for a lower drive rod linkage replacement, if the prelims went OK today the procedure should have happened by now and he should be on the way to the steaming shed! These linkages can be tricky, so some careful running in is required- so we will not see Gauge N at the Fair for possibly 2 months.... Speedy recovery Sean Eoin Quote
