I seem to remember years ago in the nineties when I was in the "mob" (RAF) working at an electronic maintenance unit, some bright spark (no pun intended) decided to superglue some discrete components to a PCB before soldering them. Once he got to soldering, the heat from the iron made quite a bit of white smoke and he was decidedly ill. As you can imagine, a safety bullitin was published forbidding such action.  It's a good job the "cyan" in cyanoacrylate doesn't stand for cyanide

Dapol are planning a rebuilt WC/BB after the air-smoothed version. I would have thought a rebuilt MN would have come from Graham Farish by now if they thought it would be a commercial success.

typical of banks, and building societies, close all the local branches to increase profits 'save money and give a better service', then tell you you need to go to a branch.
probably find they have shares in oil companies and trying to increase their dividends  :veryangry:  :censored:

You will know when a Virgin Atlantic aircraft passes overhead by the aroma of fried fish and chips wafting in the breeze. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/nov/28/transatlantic-flight-sustainable-jet-fuel-virgin-atlantic-saf
