andymac-2008 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 What came with part 31? I think its the other part of the footbridge from this clip on youtube. It shows the bridge complete and says its issue 17 to 32. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNYTK5CJBi0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

emperordalek Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Sadly the latest WHS 20% off card specifically excludes magazines (and just about everything else that WH Smith sell as well)..... Previous 20% cards used to offer 10% off magazines, but that's stopped now as well. Best Regards, ZG. W H Smiths - gets a one out of ten from Len !!

emperordalek Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 If you're happy with the Hatchet mk1's, then save yourselves some money by buying this loco, looks like a Jinty to me. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JOUEF-PLAYCRAFT-0-4-0-TANK-LOCOMOTIVE-706-WORKING-UNBOXED-ITEM-/350867292879?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item51b15202cf Mike. What a terrible trick to play on people!! Even without a picture. if that looked like a Jinty I'll prepare the runway ready for the pig to land!!

emperordalek Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 The last one was issue 7 (including a bag of green flock!). Issue 8 is due about now. Up to now, the only value for money items have been the coach and possibly the level crossing. The buildings have been rather poor and expensive at two issues each. With this bag of green flock you really spoil us ambassador,...erm hatchette! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
emperordalek Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Had to chuckle this afternoon saw two new Hatchette partworks advertised in the same" block of time": firstly a German !!U-96 U-Boat (don't know the scale) in 150 parts - first part 50p then the remainder at £5:99, and then an "O" gauge "Mallard" in garter blue livery - in 130 parts - first isssue 50p then the remainders at £7:99 each. The A4 appears to be in etched brass (for the body at least)) and there is footage of it running on a length of track. Will be interesting to see how these two subjects fare!!

RMweb Gold 30801 Posted August 27, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 27, 2014 The U-boat is 1:48 so it's a hefty beast. Not sure where the 150 issues come in as AFAIK there is no interior detail and subs don't have a huge amount of twiddly bits on the outside... Hmm.

This is useful http://www.u96-bauen.de/vorschau/ It looked a prize pike in the bloke's arms in the ad. tbh.! It's a bloomin' expensive fish I have to say, will the propellor be motorised I wonder? Incidentally do you know if Tthe YRMV has been discontinued to retailers - haven't seen in Barnsley for many weeks now, and you and I seem the only active posters on here, with other correspondents - well not even a trickle!

Smiffy2 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Who knows what technical marvels may have been invented by the time the series comes to an end? Anti-gravity? Room temperature superconducting coreless motors? Or given that it's 130 parts, probably needs the Infinite Improbability Drive... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarnboroughAndy1963 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Is anybody else having problem logging into their Hachette account? I wanted to check mine as it states in the covering letter with issues 34 - 37 that I owe £71.92. I logged in as usual. My name appeared at top of page, but when I click on either "account" tap or the "subscription details" tab it asks me to register my details as a new customer??????

I had the exact same problem a few months ago, and after a lot of trying and phoning customer services with no joy I had to try and work it out for myself. My problem was caused by an update from windows, I system restored my PC to take out the recent windows update and it worked fine after that, then I installed the updates one at a time to see which update was causing the problem and found it, It was (internet explorer 11 for windows 7 for x64-based systems) this was the update that caused my problem. please let me know how you get on.
