Gav836 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 You’re lucky they sold that one to you, usually only sell them to certificated tree surgeons these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 The long range forecast was showing a possibility of a new Beast From The East for this week, so we reviewed all the learnings from last year. Item number one on the list of things to buy was a better shovel for clearing snow. The last one in stock at the local farm supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted January 24, 2019 Author Share Posted January 24, 2019 Got some plastic storage boxes from Aldi, 80 litre box with lid for £6.99, I initially only got 2 but they take the models perfectly so I am off back for more. I feel a loft tidy up coming on. At the moment I have all manner of cardboard boxes of varying shapes and sizes and hopefully this will allow me to free up a bit of space............................for more models of course!

Kirely Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 The problem with plastic storage boxes is they scuff the model boxes, ends especially. Banana boxes, free from your local supermarket, will keep your model boxes undamaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went back to Aldi for more boxes and they had sold out. I then went to Asda for some other things and they had the very same 80 litre storage boxes for £6, so much for Aldi being the cheapest. I did to buy 4 more though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hajo Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 A bit of mixing hobby's, I bought myself a plastic model kit of a vintage racing bicycle. Saw a whole range one day at a friends house, and finally I stumbled upon one at Ebay, while buying some other parts for a project bicycle.

smithy Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Not really a general buy as I did not buy them , but I did buy the draw tickets . A local company to me, Brad Farm Machinery had a open day last week ,it was mainly livestock stuff but well worth the visit anyway they was running a draw in aid of the R.A.B.I. The Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution and I won the sockets and my mate won a jacket ,not sure how much they raised but hopefully a decent bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodiestractor Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 If you fell in Sxxx you would come out smelling of roses, or was there only two people at the open day, or did you bribe the ticket seller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
