UPDATE : 2016-08-16

To all,

More MAJOR PACKS pages ! I have added the D and E box pages, and most main view (Front/Back) are there ! Still miss a few as well as several end flaps.

There seems to be a broken link to Pat's Matchbox reference site ('Lesneyonline'), it only shows a banner at the top of the screen advertising Nick's new book on Matchbox models.

Can Nick or Admin look into this please.

This is one for Nick, I think. (The link is correct and matches the one on Nick's catalogue site's homepage.)

Update: I've just had a look at the HTML code on the page. The page is loading correctly, i.e. there is code missing.

It's back online after some technical problems !

Sorry about that, I got swamped in many other things not related to our hobby. That even kept me away for the hobby in general, not only the web site. And I also have to blame a full glass of white wine that spilled all over my brand new laptop !

Back in business now !

Covering the pre-70 YY is in my future projects, but I'll finish covering MP, KS and AP before... So many things to do ! ;)
