Hi Malc, I was talking to the skin doctor that removed the cancer on my hand last Thursday, he told me 1,800 people die in Oz from Melanoma's every year, he said most die because they don't have any symptoms and by the time it is diagnosed it is to late, sorry to hear about your friend.
Keep on Smiling
Dave.

just lost 3 coupling springs to the great unknown trying to swap a hst power car out, though that is nothing compared to the last half dozen or so entries in this thread.

Grah! An ebay buyer with feedback of 7, who buys a DVD from my auction last Sunday, finally pays on Friday afternoon and then emails me to ask where it is today.. Sunday... AND no way of leaving a comment about them on EBAY! Bah!

I would send him a very polite message through eBay explaining why he has not received his DVD yet and giving him some idea when he should expect delivery.

I have had four occasions this year where I have had to open a case against sellers and have bent over backwards to be polite in all my messages to them.  I won all four cases and  think it helps eBay come to a decision if you have been seen to try and help politely through sending messages.

cheers John.

Grumble. Another 'disintegrates in the water' Fox decal set to go back. I wish Fox would fix this  but unfortunately I don't know of any other Coronation Scot loco decals.

You can start a new collection.

I have a scrap box for interesting scrap and oddments. When its full I throw most of it away. That keeps it under a bit more control, and I usually find by then its got 20+ short lengths of saved bits of wire in it and enough clear plastic packaging to build a model of the Shard so most of it can go.
