To be fair what the much, and possibly justifiably, maligned Mr Rumsfeld said did actually make sense, even if the way he put it was somewhat sub-optimal! As for me, I'll just make myself comfortable and relax while I wait. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of an over-reaction to a light-hearted remark! As to my own business practice, I defy you to find better - return-of-post in 99% of cases is more than satisfactory, judging by my customers' many complimentary comments.

My engagement, not being in an actual 'customer facing role, and in my own time, was at a useful point, to the thread as a whole by way of a reminder to all. Thank you.

(Under the influence of several excellent Ozzie beers, I got up and recited 'The Lion and Albert' during a Sunday afternoon music and poetry open mike in a classic Ozzie pub. It went down a storm, not least because I reverted to my native Lancashire accent)! CJI. 3 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium rprodgers Posted January 24 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 24 Not a complaint. If you get an email APC it might not be spam as I first thought, it could be your Kernow orders! (The initial email from APC had no indication who the parcel was from and had a link ). I had no emails from Kernow MRC (yes I checked my junk mail) so was suspicious. Early this morning I had two emails from APC confirming it was from Kernow MRC Anyway by 10:15 today I was the proud owner of two SRM - 85 & 61 @Graham_Muz please can you pass on my thanks and praise to all involved with this project. It is truly superb and well worth the wait. I was one of those who ordered many years ago, 2016 I think, and had the subsequent request to re-order which I did by phone. For this reason my re-order didn’t show on my orders on the KMRC website. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The model looks stunning, but sadly the wheels are too close together by a factor of 2mm. That’s the downside of modelling in EM. I now need to work up the courage to start dismantling the model to re-gauge the wheels. P.S. the chimney was still firmly attached to the top of the boiler, but thanks for the warning anyway.

RMweb Premium Gwiwer Posted January 24 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 24 A brief visit to Camborne today resulted in the collection of No.61 An exquisite machine which, whilst not at all in keeping with the 1960s theme, doesn’t seem out of place at Porthgarrow. 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
