    I loved Bolt and wish I had seen it in 3D-would see again tbh.

    Bookie-I can't offer real advice but I can listen...

    They only did it in 3D at our cinema, cost us an extra £5 ish for glasses. I'm glad in a way we didnt have a choice, coz me being a cheapskate, I would've probably chosen 2D and saved the fiver ;):D
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Hey up Mrs S, how is Natasha then is she going to hospital? Hope not. Sounds like your reservoir for your power steering is cracked or its a pipe, not too expensive Id have thought. One of my cars I have just discovered has a fuel leak, the day before the MOT too which ACTUALLY is a good thing as the place Im taking it to doesnt do free retests (Council MOT Centre), so got to that fixed tomorrow.

    Booky - Bring your SOA to Manchester ;) and listen to Bunny she's full of wonderful things; except me ;) :eek: Can I say that? :D

    Good to see you Jinky Jonk, so glad that you cant stay away and Sar, hope you are feeling better; it looks like you are.

    Right Im off to devise the inscriptions for a Brass Plaque for my Field Gun model that depicts the last Field Gun Run at the Royal Tournament in 1999. Any ideas???


    zzzzzzzz sorry just nodded off at the end of your post there lenny... "model that depicts the last Field Gun Run at the Royal Tournament in 1999."

    sounds riveting!!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Have you never seen the Field Gun at the Royal Tournament? Full of big Field Gunners (thats for all you ladies). Mi FIL bought me the model about 5 years ago and it was only one of 6 made, its in a oak chest and everything. Will be worth a few bob in a few years.

  • Will having a plaque put on it affect the value Len?

    I would just say what it is-perhaps when/where it was made and what lot number it is of. (ie 3/6)

  • 'Allo!

    went to work not too bad till my boss turned up - he is nice but so POSITIVE it drives me nuts!

    glad thread is all normal today. Bookie, we clearly need to think up a plan for your business.

    book shops. is your area very touristy? know any local historians? any one an expert could they run tours? and you sell guide books?

    could you run a poetry evening ? for a local poet? pound each to sit and listen even a book reading?

    book clubs?

    I know its all evening stuff. do you do much trade in the mornings? could you open 10 - 6? instead of 9- 5.30?(if that is what you do open?)

    can you offer a book finding service?? do you sell gift cards? birthday card that sort of thing?

    off to get chocolate xxx

    I think it MAY add value, but dont have details of where it was made on the actual model.
