Well mine arrived safe and sound this morning after a Royal Mail e Mail saying it was out for delivery today……..put it on the track and what a little cracker it is, runs beautifully smooth,quiet as the proverbially mouse and looks absolutely great and stunning, well worth the wait and more importantly well done Kernow………. dave brighty………

I would just like to thank the organisers of this show for a really good experience…..I visited on the Sunday and plenty of parking , good venue, plenty of room and some very good layouts and dealers, all in all for a first visit I was very impressed, thank you and hopefully there will be another show next year…..dave brighty…..

Just got a phone call from Bristol allegedly from Nationwide saying they were offering a free check to over 65 yrs for a house health check which was a government initiative to help counter the cost of living for your house……..they were prepared to come and check our roof insulation saying it needed checking every two years……they then gave us the house and post code of a house we moved from three years ago, rather strange as we have just renewed our house insurance with nationwide……when they originally called no security checks were asked for, just nothing………we checked with nationwide and they had not received any similar calls, but were suspicious of the call………just thought I put it up if anyone else gets a similar call…………….dave brighty

I expect you wish you had bought one Alastair…………currently going for £130.000 plus at the moment if you can find one…….very nice to see……..dave…

On holiday in Ireland and seen parked in Bantry…….I’ll give you a clue it’s an AC but what model…..I had to look it up, built in 1961 and only 83 built…….what a cracker and it was in immaculate condition……dave brighty

Just seen 4/5 swifts flying high over Shepton, first ones this year…..lovely, just the job……..

Just an update on the above…..after thinking about it I decided to block bidder B , I informed bidder A and he was pleased……at the end neither of them got it but another bidder got the item for £42. so all in all I was quite happy, thank you for your comments…..dave brighty…..

Had to put this up …….just seen it at anchorage, I have been looking for one for about two years after I found out there were one or two still flying……..dave brighty….

Hi there……I am at present selling several items on e bay for my daughter(not railway items)…..we will call him bidder A puts in a bid for £5 but his top price is £43…..along comes bidder B we will call him and gradually goes up and tops bidder A by £1 to £44.next day he retracts his bid and the price drops back to £5 to bidder A his reason for withdrawing his bid is entering wrong amount ( o yes what 6 times I think not )…we now have a situation where bidder B knows the top price at the moment for the item……. the question is what should I do…….1). Withdraw the item altogether and leave it a few weeks or 2) block bidder B from bidding or anything else I haven’t thought of…….. I have contacted bidder A and he is not very happy about bidder B but is happy to leave matters as they are i have not contacted eBay as I think they will do nothing your comments would be appreciated……..the item ends on Sunday…….regards dave brighty

Really nice to see what I call an old plane, not many of these about now that’s for sure……just the job……

Wonderful programme last night like many other replies here I think we all loved it……I watched the documentary after and was so surprised to hear that Shaun Evans had a northern accent as well as Joan Thursday had a Scottish accent, they certainly covered them up in the programme…….again great tv, shame it has finished……..dave brighty
