Put Tesla stickers on it, just as damaging and much safer.

If it has a phone number on it then just put an extra piece of paper on there with "Now $3000 must sell ASAP" and let his phone ring off the hook.

As far as I'm aware I have no Gaelic blood in me but, since I used to go hill walking in the Republic in the late70s/early 80s, I have loved their music. I think it was 'Planxty' who set me off, and an evening in Matt Malloy's pub in Westport, Co. Mayo. I've walked up the 2 holy mountains (St.Brendan's and Croagh Patrick) and also done Carrauntoohil. Here's a great track entitled 'Roisin Dubh' (Not to be confused with the Thin Lizzy track of the same name)

A band I really liked in the 80s - The Cars (just don't ask me what I think about what Live Aid did with 'Drive' )

I'm hopeless without something on file, Roy.
Luckily I posted what I registered for in reply #1 in this thread

HI Mick

When you expressed an interest you provide contact details in the form of name, e-mail and phone number on the form submitted.

I would expect that when Dapol are ready to start processing orders they will reach out to all those who expressed an interest to convert the EOI into an order. At what stage in the cycle that will be I don't think has been said, but presumably when they are close to or in production.

Roy

Again I ask - how are our expressions of interest to be turned into orders please?

It all started when their cover of Land of Confusion by Genesis popped up on YouTube.
I just love their whimsical performance video with very basic but highly effective animated additions. Oh, and that amazing cat-faced contrabass balilaika named Akerø!

Well, I don't know about that........but, having never heard of Katzenjammer, I had to look them up.

I've just listened to Demon Kitty Rag and A Bar in Amsterdam which, although not really my thing, are quite good fun.

It's always good to discover new music and artists.

Quote from: madchadbrad on February 03, 2026, 09:35:23 AMBoth the full brake and the refurbished buffet are now in tooling ... remains to be seen which livery versions were most popular/ they decide to go with ...

@Adam1701D will I am sure confirm (or otherwise) but it was my understanding that all the liveries promoted for the Gresley BG and refurbished buffet will be produced, in fact as far as the buffet is concerned they have added BR maroon variants to those initially announced.

Roy

Hi Roy - that is correct. We are producing all the advertised versions of the Gresley BG and Buffet.

The Stanier Suburbans will probably be released in batches, with the most popular coming out first.
