Yep, life is tuff up here beyond the wall!! Thanks for the comments Kev and Jason, appreciated.

OK Alex, all good fun aside and all that, some serious stuff now...How far down the country are you prepaired to travel in a day. If we could establish a meeting point somewhere mid country with "Johnboy", "Fixer", "Nearlymint" and myself (and of course any one else interested), to meet up, this is not an excuse for me getting out of coming up to Scotland to see you, that I still want to do, no, its a chance for us to have a good chinwag, a few drinks and all that, does that sound like it could be made to happen, put it on the back burner and see if those guys are interested in that sort of thing.

I'll not be offended if you can not do it (goes for you other guys as well), with work commitments etc, just fought it would make a good day out for a few of us.

Cheers Alex,

Kevin.

Thanks Numi. I was very happy with the #7 as a lot sellers think they are worth big bucks and set their prices way to high. I managed to get this one for a much more realistic price which i was very pleased with.

Kevin i would be more than happy to venture to Birminham, to go any further would probably mean an overnighter (cant see the boss allowing that). When is the next meet at the NECC. It would be great to meet up with you vagabonds.

The next toy fair at the NEC Birmingham, is due to take place on Sunday, 28th September. I would be very happy to travel to that location, so maybe the other Guys can come back and say what they think, fingers crossed one or more can make it.

Sounds good, i will need to check my shifts around then but i would love to make it down. I have to say that the last time i was at the NEC in Spring 2013 i was very disappointed with the lack of Superfast on offer. I hope that things have improved since then.

I have never been to a toy fair there, only the real car Motor Show in 1980, to see the launch of the new Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit and the new Mini Metro and one other, but can't remember what it was now, might have been the new Ford Escort Popular.

Alex, are you allright up there in Scotland, I get the distinct feeling there is a lot of water around you because you seem to be shrinking...
