Right little update for you guys and girls out there on the RCS Coaches and the postage charges ..... It is technically correct in that they charge postage based on the expected release dates ..... and they obviously dispatch separately when released. The dates for the coaches are 26/12 and 27/12/2021 and therefore as one is Boxing Day and there is not postage then common sense will hopefully prevail and they will be packaged together when released (assuming they hit the expected release date). I did ring them and was advised that even if the coaches arrive

Well Everyone its that time of year again ..... Going to be a bit different for a lot of people this year ........
