I feel your pain - I missed it leaving Bristol, my usual source is a kettle fan so he didn't mention the deltic... 

Well, no N gauge has been purchased since April, but a couple of days ago an order was placed for an H0 Bachmann Alco RS3 in NYC livery. Rather nice!

On its way from Canada...hopefully with me in the next couple of weeks...

Hmm...DEMU Showcase this weekend. Not a chance 

Showcase for me also!

I've worked out that at the current rate of spending that there's not much chance that SWMBO will be getting a new Halloween mask this year. That should frighten the kids away if she is "au naturel"!

Oh dear, I've already failed that one as well. 

I made it through June, not sure about July.  Guess it depends on when Dapol's Westerns start turning up.  I also hope I've not missed the boat on getting some Graham Farish Mk2A coaches.

Hi Gang;

Day 8 of July.....update

No buying month...still intact...can actually see me lasting out this time...

doing well so far, not bought anything yet.....  unless i've got an email from hattons thats not reached me yet  about pre-orders......

cleared all the stock off the layout yesterday to put it all alway for a bit, theres stuff i've bought and not even taken out of the boxes in the past month or two.   Kinda lost the modeling mojo, but if something comes along that you want, then you have to get it whilst its available...

well the no buying thing  didnt last long....  accidently bought 2 set of the yellow blue circle wagons, some vw vans and some more noch people.

oh yeah and couple of extra folding crates to put all the stock and modelling bits in...

and a decent refurbed digital soldering station,  theres only so much you can do with 100 watt solder gun.... well i actually bought that for fixing the laptops power socket yet again.....

I can't afford to buy anything for the next few months, a new car purchased on 29th June has eaten all my pennies 

Snap - only I got mine the day before. As a result I'm even having to sell stuff to get by this month! (Not helped by purchasing a Farish 70 a few weeks ago too!)

Just failed myself!!!

Ordered a new Dapol Grampus Wagon in Dutch Liv.

It turned up this morning!! Very impressed BTW, well done Dapol

Well I said I would fail.

Quote from: Only MeLol, OK i'll offer you £35 plus postage for the class 50 then (supply and demand )

I haven't got a class 50!

Hi Guys;

Well, halfway through and the wallet is still intact...just!! Despite a trip to Modelzone Birmingham in the hope of some closing bargains...no such luck!!!

Dry July still holding out too...but the 26th is endex for that (GWR Diesel Gala, Cheltenham!!)
