PDH Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Anyone tell me who will have stands there in the farming model and spares line. Thanks Brian Norman should be there as well as the Welsh chap Cefwyn xxxxx (sorry can't remember surname). There are usually several Britains lead model dealers as well, Martin Jewell, Farmer Ed, Karen from Farm Models and of course our Mandy!!

PDH Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 (edited) Spent the morning wandering around. Really busy, looked like a lot of people were busy Christmas shopping. Lots of new UH. The latest MF's were there but the all sold within the first hour. Also saw the two new MF grey trailers, surprised how small they were. Picked up the two new UH Rolland BH 100 trailers and Manitou MI25D forklift. Loads of other things I wanted but need to watch the cash at the moment.

Leakeyvale Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I enjoyed myself as usual. Nice to meet up with other FTFers along with several other friends and aquaintance. Didn't buy very much but that is of no consequence as it was a real social gathering for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_scrivener Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) I went, briefly, as an 'Early Bird' (pay extra to get in before official opening time), and bought a few cheap bits, some pre-war Britains lead zoo railings, and some Britains PVC plastic (circa 1968, previously made of polythene. They do look and feel different) cattle, the later plastic versions of their previous lead cattle. Those detailed Britains/Herald plastic farm figure studies by Jonathan Stephens have a lot to answer for - as for us OCD collectors there are now apparently numerous sub-varieties of each of those figures. Then I had to rush home (less than 3 miles away) to buy some items ending on ebay 10 to 10.30. Those cost me all of my 'pocket money' for this month, so I didn't go back to the fair afterwards, to avoid further temptation.
