Title: Oh happy days :-)
Post by: guest311 on May 09, 2015, 04:06:11 PM
beat SWMBO to the post box today, and found the 'safe place' card in there.

checked and found a 'Par Avion' envelope from Taiwan  :thumbsup:

slipped it in when she wasn't looking (ooh er missus ) and found two Fairburn tanks inside  ;D

when she and our daughter went out set up the test loop and ran them, both smooth and quiet.

not normally a kettle man, but decided to have a small steam fleet as an excursion / preservation operation, and was so happy with the ummmm several 37251s I got from him that I decided to take a chance on the Fairburns.

certainly glad I did.

cheers

ps once again the revenue have been kind to me, no dues so robbing mail couldn't charge me as well.

It is nice to hear you managed to avoid import duty  ;) and even nicer to hear your new kettles run well  :thumbsup:

cheers John.
