I received only a single conflat on Christmas Day.
I had also previously purchased 4 Mk1 carriages with some Christmas money which arrived prior to Christmas.
However, Boxing Day is my birthday. Mrs PP has very generously booked us two tickets on a railtour later in the year from Bristol to Cumbria and a trip on the Ravenglass and Eskdale railway. We will be travelling First Class and will be enjoying Premier Dining. Looking forward to it greatly.
I'm sure I'll get used to cream first soon.

A Dapol Britannia 7000 with tender, BR late crest from SWMBO

I'm not a steam expert but wasn't a Britannia a 70000? A 7000 (in steam terms) was surely a later built Castle 4-6-0?  ;)
Or a Hymek, for those of us who are  into diesel locos.

Yes, sorry. Where's that taxi got to?  :goodbye:

Enjoy your tipple.
It's only nly the most Northerly for a few more years once the new Wolfburn distillery at Thurso is up and running.
However(as a collector of Scottish Single Malts), Old Pulteney is one of my favourites and a very interesting distillery to visit if you get the chance.
Their Old Pulteney liqueur is worth a taste too.

I'm somewhat envious of the generosity displayed by all your friends and relations here regarding your Christmas goodies.
But good luck to you all for what you got.
For myself I had nothing of railway (model or real) from anyone. It's the old story of whatever we buy will be the wrong size (scale), the wrong railway or you already have it.
It's been like that ever since an elderly, but well meaning, aunt gave me an OO Jinty in LMS livery one Christmas for my N Gauge, 1970 set Western Region layout.

Postie turns up today with my pressie to my self
Unless you are also the postie I fear that you will be disappointed,
unless I have made a blunder, I think RM dont begin deliveries till Tuesday morning ??

I got given lots of bottles of single malt, from both Islay and Speyside. And Mk1 coaches from myself to myself.

Apologies - it is the Northernmost on the mainland.
