Come on Ian, we are all young at heart that's why we have our toys!
Oh, you'd be safe all right Ghosty it's just the prices they charge! Enough to give you a heart attack!
Being New Zealand, and with so many sheep, when you come away from buying at their tables you feel like a shorn sheep!!!
Totally fleeced!!
Cheers, Steve

You've got to have a sense of humour around here Ghosty with those high prices. It's enough to bring tears to your eyes and make a grown man cry!

Actually I don't mind the high prices so much if the the seller/dealer turns out to be very friendly and so far those forum members I have met who also buy and sell models (are you listing StephenK and SteveM), have turned out to be great Guys and fast becoming some of my best friends!

TOY COLLECTORS FAIR
TRENTHAM SCHOOL HALL
Corner Moonshine Road and Fergusson Drive, UPPER HUT
SUNDAY 20th of NOVEMBER

Hopefully this is still on due to the earthquakes and floods in Wellington recently.
May be Ian can confirm.
I don't think I'll be going this time but I hope everyone has a great day.

Haven't heard anything to the contrary Steve - will try to remember to get in touch with Julian so he can check all is OK - hall was recently upgraded so should have survived OK
DRAT!! Can't contact him as I no longer have his email address or phone number... any others in Wgtn have it??

Hi Ian and Steve,
Trentham is still on this Sunday - although obviously another large aftershock could change things (let's hope it doesn't!). There will be a few missing for various reasons this time, but I will be there as usual and sounds like a reasonable turnout is expected. I figure it will better to be hanging out with the gang than pacing around here worrying lol!
Cheers,
Gavin

Hi Gavin,
Hope you and the family are holding up ok in all the earthquakes.
Can you take your camera to the swapmeet to get some photo's to post here for those of us that can't make it!
Cheers, Steve
