  1. Or import them yourself?

    Mike.

     

    not this seller, but another from china or hong kong, or chinese taipai, or whereever... but i brought a load of lamps, 4 different styles, including yard lamps, about 60 in total, a bucket load of trees, about 400 in different styles and sizes..and about a 1000 figures, painted (ahem) for a bout £100 with free postage, and they were here within a fortnight, and what a healthy sized box it was, packed with goodies

     

    the figures aren't brilliant, a bit garish in colouring, but a wash sorts that out

     

    the trees, though basic, are ideal for bulk planting, a few dabs of hairspry and a roll in in flock....job done

     

    the lights...bargain, cant fault them... or get some of those new ones, that seem to be advertised evrywhere for like £60 for 6

     

    i would rather put out a fire with my face

  2. Clive,

     

    It rather seems that great minds think alike - I am struck by the similarity between our two solutions!

    I added a sinuous curve to make the build interesting and no rivets any where in my construction methods of course!

     

    Ian, glad to hear you support Gayle Mill - I met a lady from there last year at Masson - I ask when you would turn it back to a cotton mill, which was not too popular!!.Guy Martin is quite a character - I had to keep stopping him putting his fingers in dangerous places - but he was very handy when we had a minor breakdown. And Pete, I am not a professional musician, but I do blow the clarinet and knock the piano out of tune now and again! Funny how hobbies come in similar groupings...

     

    Cheers,

    that is stunning work ! it flows so well, may i ask as to what you used for rodding on either side of the track?

  3. can i add another to the wish list, pretty please.

     

    would dearly love a coaling stage, something ramshackle, a mix and match of stuff, perhaps some corrugated panels...oh i know...the one at guildford...now this would be awesome.

     

     

    as an aside, someone mentioned georgian terrace, this would be good, with an option for basements, typical of sussex seaside towns?

  4. My wishlist is not for this building or that building as I know in time they will get made. What I would like to see are slightly larger photos of the completed buildings on the website, and perhaps some alternate photos of the buildings show what they look like in different brick options. Perhaps also saying how many pages each download contains would also be helpful.

     

    if hadn't of been greedy....

     

     

    i heartily agree with all of this
