No.

But thanks for sending it. Here's a photo of me drinking the milk this morning.

Guys, a chance joking remark about a victorian-inspired fairground prize that has turned into a modern cliche' for a correct guess was followed by a series of joking remarks that were at first funny but changed into a runaway train that (to me) ran way past its joke by date and in the end it was just annoying and unkind thoughts abounded.

Very fine build David. Looking at it again it's got a sort of 'Matchbox-ness' about it. Cool.

All the best.

I see what you mean Greg, and you are right this kit does have that Lesney feel about it.

David.
In which case, David, I apologise.
Previous Blitz threads (as well as some this time round) have many irreverent and irrelevant comments and trends. I was just continuing in that vein. As I now see that this has, indeed, caused annoyance then I shall (from this point forward) no longer be mentioning the aforementioned fairground prizes.

Thanks Ian but this is one of those "globally provincial" things that arises from a world wide community, this is a common saying in Britain but these threads involve people from many nations, it is easy to assume that everyone uses the same saying and chiches' so people would join in without thinking anything of it, taking the words at face value. I also did not think anything of it by simply using a normal "local" saying without thought. I myself should apologise for using such sayings here.
