On the subject of parcel delivery. Just this afternoon had a parcel delivered by my hermes { not Hatton's related }. by a dodgey looking bloak you would not like to open the door to. A book box set i won on Ebay well packed by the seller but still arrived damaged in transit.Give me Royal Mail every time I have had a heck of a lot of parcels delivered and have sent by them with no problems what so ever over the years and am well pleased with there service and have never had a bad postman in the 20 years at my currant address -

Hornby B1 Sir Harold Mitchell Excellent boxed £99.50 { make an offer } £85.00 inc not a brilliant low price but not bad. Superb looking locomotive one of Hornby's best

HI Just to add my bit.most of the second hand stuff in Auto-Loco i had a look at when in there was tat priced at crazy prices. there must have been about 600 old magazines also priced at a daft asking price. Food and good beer the two life boats at the bottom of the high street well recommended
-
If this turns out to be as good as the B1 where in for a treat. Lets hope Hornby get it right for all of us The photo of the loco looks the part to me
