Took my passport form and pictures into the Post Office for checking and sending off on 23rd Jan and was told to expect that my passport would be back within 3 weeks. It was delivered on 26th Jan!

I just got the winning bid (eBay) on a Class 150.  It has body damage, but that's fine for what I need.  £50 with postage added. :claphappy:  Then, after I got to the page that says "Congratulations! You've Won!" I see another 150 advertised underneath for £50 buy it now.  Well, before I could even think about what my wife would think, the fingers had done the clicking!!!!! :doh:   :)

So, one pair will go towards a Class 456, one power car will be a second motor for the Class 455.  The dummy will be used for something else eventually.

Looked out of the spare bedroom/railway room this morning and wasted time watching some MR BT men unloading and starting to install a highspeed fibre optic broadband cabinet directly opposite us so at last we might get a better connection as promised about a year ago  ::) :claphappy: :claphappy:

Joined Dapol's Nthusiasts club just before Christmas, mainly to buy the Class 22 and milk tankers club special but somehow my application got screwed up and wasn't actioned.  I contacted Joel who got on the case and as result today my membership packed finally arrived but with an added bonus of an extra two wagons (making three in total) as compensation for being messed around, well done Dapol.   :claphappy:

SWMBO picked up some bits'n'bobs in the B'ham branch of Iain Allen; nothing N (although they had a range of wagons & a few coaches on discount), but a OO Pullman 3rd to go with her 1sts, and an LNER Conflat (which was effectively free, as the Pullman was @ 33% off); she got the other Conflat in MZ - so she's chuffed  :laugh3:

Me, I got the 2nd volume of the 'Named Trains on LNER Lines' - cracking book and on offer as well :D - so I guess SWMBO got both Conflats free  :laugh:

(on a side note : if anyone wants the blue (1969) version of the Hornby OO Brighton Belle, they had in the 2-car pack as well as all the extras - all at discount.  Not my cup of tea ...)
