  1. I have just been stung by their standard £5.95 P&P I rushed my order through and did not take much notice however when the items arrived the stamp on the very small packet cost £2.80, less than half of what they charged me. I emailed them and queried it and their reply informed me that their P&P charges are not just for postage..............it also covers the cost of a person putting the items into the envelope! I told them to delete my account as I will not be using again.
  2. Hi Andrew, I will make sure I only speak when I am spoken too and I will keep a low profile :-) Yes I have heard the Tonbridge club is a good one as well so as soon as I have the foot operation and can drive again I will have a drive down there and take a look.
  3. Thank you Nestor, we all have to start somewhere and I am a quick learner so I am looking forward to expanding my knowledge. Mike
  4. Hi all, Is there room for a newbie railway modeller amongst what looks to be a very experienced group, if so I would like to watch and learn as this group covers the area I live in. My name is Mike and I live in St Mary's Platt (between West Malling & Borough Green) in Kent. I have been plastic kit modelling for a number of years but now need a bit more to get my teeth into so I am looking into building my first proper model railway on a baseboard. I have spent the last month reading and researching the topic and have decided to settle on OO gauge. I am aiming to move (local) and the plan is to finish up with a spare room to build a complex layout so in the meantime my plan is to build my first OO layout running via DCC on a 8 x 4 baseboard consisting mainly of track and electrics with a minimal amount of scenery. This option will allow me to gain experience in the areas I need i.e. baseboard building, track planning, track laying and electrics. I am planning on joining the Tonbridge MRC however I have to have a minor operation on my right foot soon which will lay me up for a while so I am waiting for that to be completed and healed before I join. Mike
