Outstanding ..Ray, that thing is beautiful. You see that Graham...your window sill would need a serious upgrade to have that sitting on it.

Take a look at some of their other stuff. http://www.kohs.com/index.htmTop quality hand made brass models, engineering in miniature, museum pieces. I have my name down for a couple of pieces, just got to find a of paying for them now. Expensive yes, but you get a lot of bang for your buck. Ray...

Hey Graham..with all the heavy haulage/crane traffic on the ''sill ''..why dont you let the ulf girls work for a fee   ..as long as ulf gets a remittance i'm sure he would'nt object  .. Both Gus & Noel have alpine passes that need paying tolls on... , sure the international travel would be good for the girls...constrained times need new ideas..call it a public/private patnership.. Aubrey.

Graham...it goes like this...darling?? what do you think about a Bay window for the front, this old one here just doesn't make the house look good. Of course we will both have to work a bit more OT to pay for the upgrade.... How do I know this....because I have a brand new ensuite that was finished yesterday and that is how the conversation was originally started by "her indoors"(believe me they don't come cheap and she has a nose for expensive)...only problem is I am doing the overtime. Cannot complain though she just scored a contract for 2 weeks at 8 grand, she just doesnt' know it yet, but she is paying for that Weisbauer 1070 and the McNallys 1070 that are expected in the next week.

hahaha good stuff lads  I had thought about the Ulf girls,but as we all know girls can be alot of trouble,let alone the Ulf girls,plus,you let them in and then they forever know I hear the travelers are even wary of them Gary I'm hoefully not too far from making my biggest purchase,its just a matter of finding a place with a 100 yard long window sill lol I think thats a given,viewing properties and all I'm doing is measuring up the window sills,don't care if its got 10 bathrooms and no kitchen,its all about the sills

But I don't think that "Toy" will fit on your window sills!!!!   Nice snaps Graham, glad Mogs let you go with and take your camera!!!! Hopefully you got some other snaps as well from McNally's while you were there!! 
Dain I'm a kid at heart, so I will play with any model construction vehicle from 1:87 scale to 1:1 scale!!!! Age is a state of time NOT a state of mind!!
