Cheers mate, yes had a great time thanks. doing a couple of escape rooms tomorrow for join celebration with my mate. Do you ever go to York carboot that's a massive one. Have been a few times

 

[TC-14]

Glad to hear the celebrations are continuing! Yeah, the York car boot at the racecourse is just a 15 minute walk from mine, so near… only problem is I open my barbershop at 8am every Saturday so I never have the chance to check it out.

Seeing your weekly hauls has certainly put me in mind to make a point of scouring the stalls there next time I give myself a (well earned, in my humble opinion) Saturday off work!

Happy belated Birthday, Steve. Sounds like you've had a good time- enjoy the escape rooms- always great fun

Well nothing today, was surprised it was on. Very cold and very windy. Also there were some really horrible sellers there today. The way they act you would think they didn't want to sell anything and some real horrible buyers as well pushing and shoving there is no need for it!!

From Thursday

NEC tomorrow can't wait.

Just saw this about the NEC and have a very rare free Sunday so thinking of coming up with my son.

Do you have a seller's stall there tomorrow, or attending as a customer?

Any tips for someone whose never been before?

Hi mate, my mate sells I go to help out. As you walk in we are usually on the wall to your left he has a lot of boxed corgi and dinky toys has three shelves. Its a massive event the question to get in the morning is massive early bird is more expensive but would say its worth if. If wanting to have look around and avoid a queue then maybe get there about 30 min after official open time by then the queue to get in has calmed down, still very busy until the end. Hope to see you there. Steve

Cool - I'll look for your mates stall and say hello.

Stupid question, but, do the vendors take cards for payment these days? Don't think I've been to a real life toy and train fayre since 1996!

I love the diversity of your pick ups. There was so much going on at the NEC so I focussed on MOCs, but, there was loads of great loose stuff there as well.

 

[Beeper383]

Also got this tri logo at the NEC. Not the best card, but, displayable.
