      I still think changing your own number to a premium rate one is the answer. And you could make some useful cash, too....

      The one you haven't mentioned, Robin, is a re-make of 'Terry & June', but this time it's set in Blodwyn Street, Haverfordwest, and stars the American actor Hamilton P. Academical as Terry and Julia Milford-Haven as June.

      OK...so there are "errors" in th eroof ventilator layout, and others....

       

      BUT they are good for what they are. Old style Completely Knocked Down (CKD) kits. Based on old RTR models.

       

      Great for "bashing". (like GBL for coaches, but already in bits!)

       

      If you want them as they come, you only really need to paint the ends (and the underframe to hide the "plastic" shine) black.

      On the Hattons site they do a kit and a rtr version of the same model.Tempted by a 60' lined maroon one.

      Cheapest way to buy ink cartridges is to buy a new printer! (The printer manufacturers make their money on the replacement cartridges).

    3. richbrummitt

      richbrummitt

      The printer cartridges that are included are usually only partly filled. Certainly replacement HP ones lasted a lot longer than those that it shipped with.

      Some one used to run a little (Franchised?)business in the forecourt of our local Sainsburys, re filling your own spent cartridges. Didn't last long, I'm afraid.
