Found this headline in the net - what a surprise!

Yes, they did. And to think that just five or six years ago, Matchbox was producing great little models...now it's a sea of generic construction equipment and off-roaders.

Now there's a reason for banning someone if ever I heard one!

Do not joke - here in Oz we get all the old Rick Astleys and many more coming over to do tours at the local clubs. Think its Searchers month this time !!!!!!!
