    Looks like I'm in the doghouse this weekend after taking SWMBO to the Milton Keynes show yesterday and as she walked ahead of me I bought another Bachmann class 37.

      I had to pay 7.50 postage the other day for a tin of railmatch paint. It's royalmail they won't send paint so that's probably why it's so high.

      It would be cheaper to buy a airbrush and mix the colour if you have a sample... Well it is where I am!

    Is wondering my RMweb Gold membership has bee removed even though I'm a paid up member ?

      Well, your gold badge is currently still being displayed so you should be able to access the "Gold Only" areas of the forum to check.  I'm a Gold Member too, but I got AY Mod to hide the badge as I wasn't keen on flaunting it at the time...

Funny how several hours of filming becomes sped up into a piece lasting less than 5 minutes, or less than a minute with the 47 in!
