RMweb Premium Kris Posted December 25, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 25, 2013 So did you get what you wanted or something unexpected? So far I have received a model rowing boat, unexpected but something that I need for Coombe viaduct, and the thought behind it was great :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazmanjack Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Wanted - 3 Bachmann weathered 16t mineral wagons and 6 Peco buffer stops. Excellent ! Unexpected - a Cyberman (Doctor Who) tee shirt, and a book on Brtish steam locos. Cool ! Strange - A rather ugly snow dome on a pedestal that lights up and blows snow around a silver Santa Claus figure climbing down a chimney. Um, not sure about this ! I guess that the thought counts... Cheers, Gary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
