I have noticed that the Wills conservatory is a perfect fit to the side wall of the old Hornby Victorian semi-detached houses kit. Same for the Victorian shops kit which shares many of the same mouldings. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sem34090 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 (edited) I did genuinely consider weathering it for the purpose! Other inaccuracies include either an out of date rulebook or an out of date 'phone; The rulebook is correct up to 1961 and the 'phone is a GPO 746 introduced in 1967, although it looks similar to the 706 of 1958.

The Hornby kits are much underrated, its a pity that they're not made any more. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m proud of being Welsh, and Thomas said a lot of things for comic effect in pubs so people would buy him beer. He also wrote (and what he wrote mattered much more to him than what he said) ‘to be born Welsh is a privilege, not with a silver spoon in your mouth, but a song in your heart’. Sentimental rubbish, but he was proud of his Welshness, while not averse to capitalising on it on American tours. 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
