Not really my cup of coffee, or anything else, I'm afraid. Thanks for sharing though

That Every picture album was the best thing he ever did.

...another English "moral" victory, I suppose. 

Truthfully, though, all three matches, at different times, could have gone the other way. The English side definitely has enough talent to compete.

There were plenty of Aussies in the audience getting concerned when over a hundred runs were scored in the first session and then the remaining target dropped to under 100. Fortunately, we didn't drop the chances.

Everyone have a blessed, happy and safe Christmas.

Ho ho ho oh yeah merry n-gauging Christmas it shall be!
All the best to all our fellow modellers.

Well, after a rather long absence I would just like to wish everybody a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!



PS - blimey! Ive just noticed its been almost three years since my last post!

Rod Stewart's 'Every picture tells a story' album, from the days when he wasn't an ageing crooner.
Before that it was The Mamas & The Papas 'Greatest Hits' - true classic 60s pop

Yeah, mine's been going on and off all day on me mobile.

I think it's interference from the Adelaide test

And another update.

Rails are now offering duty paid delivery with both RM and DHL.

My Christmas present from my son and daughter in law arrived today. It's a Dapol CL68 and it was shipped via Royal Mail, no duties to pay at this end.

I've also placed an order on behalf of SWMBO for some Peco points and a box of Flex track, because of the size of the box it had to be shipped with DHL but according to the invoice that I just received from Rails, it is still shipping duty paid. That should arrive early in the new year, watch this space.

It looks like Rails are adding tariff charges of 10% for Peco stuff and 20% for Dapol and Farish, although for Dapol and Farish I'm sure that they should be adding 30%.

But I don't care as my pressie arrived without any issues.

Regards and Merry Christmas,

John P
