It was good to see a lot of you and apologies to those I was too busy to properly talk to. My stall was so busy I didn't get a bite of sandwich until 1.30, so it must have been a good one. Now to build up my strength ahead of Sandown!

Re: Toy fair news
It was great seeing Stephen selling bucket loads of Matchbox models to Graham Hamilton, but he showed no real interest in another example of #40, the Royal Tiger Coach with Grey wheels. I thought he would be biting my arm off to get it or maybe it was just the sight of all that Money in his hand I thought I had access too...

As promised J, here is the gold SF#33 Miura with tow slot i found at Birmingham yesterdayt. Not bad for £1 i am sure you will agree. I have found this a really tough variation to find so i am very pleased.

Re: Toy fair news
Now that leaves me with an even tougher challenge, finding a bronze Miura with a tow slot baseplate!!! Two chances of that happening any time soon, Fat and Slim. Numi's got one from memory.nearlymint wrote:What a beauty Alex, well worth the trip down I would say. Very hard variation to find indeed and in such superb condition. Superb Alex. J

Re: Toy fair news
OK Guys, I am planning on being at Sandown so usual meeting in the cafe area from 10:30 am onwards.
Jason, we must try and meet up with you OK. If you can not see us at the above time, I can arrange a meeting point for you at one of my dealer friend's table at a time that suits you.
