And have the HMRC and the UK Border Force, AND the Post Office taken any notice of it?  :-\

You can reclaim it from HMRC if they charge you when there's a Free Trade agreement, but the Post Office ? No idea
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

It took a letter from my MP before they did that for me some years back, miserable, greedy gits!

Of course the PO say it's an 'administrative charge' which they think they can levy anyway, even if there's nothing TO administer. That took a solicitor's letter to sort out.  :banghead:

Just seen sprue shots of a 1/144 scale Handley page hastings.  Looks good, but they aren't  fooling me. ;D

I found my Mikro-Mir 1/144 Beverley kit last night, after it having been lost since the last Telford and that's WELL over a year ago!

I looked it it in a new light.............  :-\

I'm just amazed the 'Sweary Mary Detector' didn't ping that one, as I've had the term 'sucks' altered before...

The sweary mary detector will pick up a singular poo-poo but not many shits.

I leave it to others to comment...

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

To be released soon.
1/72nd scale  SNCASO 9050 Trident  2
Krupp Forel imperial  Russian navy  submarine, also in 1/72nd scale.  Fingers crossed that they are actually buildable  without  feeling the need to  bounce them off a wall. I like the look of the Trident, it would look nice  sat with  my Nord Griffon.

That's VERY useful Jon, thanks so much. I have two of them now, one to be Whiffed and one for an RW Bev.

Ref the oil leaks, my Dad used to say the Centaurus had 1000 cu ins more capacity than a Hercules, 1000 more hosepower and a MILLION more oil leaks.  ;D

Coming  soon .....allegedly.
SNCASO Dever in 1/72nd scale. At least  it will give me something  else to throw at the dart board.  ;D
