Guys

WOW what can i say.................this has got to be the busiest lead up to a show that i have ever had.........The pre orders are immense and the preparation is on a huge magnitude!!

Dispatch Dave and his dad Dispatch Denis have done an awesome job getting all orders out to try and get our data base clear of back order prior to the show!! Plus all the new Crimean came in!
Dad has had to contend with Dispatches and the change in prices due to VAT
Andy our IT guy has been working nights to get the site updated
Bob has been going round the bend trying to update from HK but our very own server saw him as a hacker so booted him out.....That was funny!!
Catherine (Dave's mum) has been up early baking getting all the pasties, pies and mince pies ready for the show.
Catherine (book keeper) has been contending with all the traders for the show with there wants and changes!!

Me well!!! i have just been smiling nicely! and running all over upstairs one minute in th office and then downstairs packing the next!!

But we think we are there ready for action!!!

Shannon gets into London on Thursday, Andy and Helen also

the whole of the K&C UK gang get in on convoy on Thursday!!

Friday big set up day.........come and say hi by all means! we have a very nice display from HK to show off............if we can find the space!

Then Friday off to Britain's to film for TSTV the Britain's annual dinner!

then big show day!!!

See you all then

Do you mean James has changed his order as well,i must say i'm very shocked at his behaviour.In female Monty python voice;
He's a very naughty boy!!.:D

As for Simon,he is notoriously easy,he said he was heading for Soho after the last London show,and we all know there are no toy soldier shops in Soho...but come to think of it there are women in uniform!......so i've heard you understand.;)

I'd have you for slander, but for the fact that it's perfectly true. Anyway, for your info, I found loads of interesting figures to look at in the Soho area. ;)

What time do you reckon you'll be there on sat mate?

Hope Tony is all right this year,last year you know he had food poisoning,the symptoms were just like a HANGOVER,it wasn't a HANGOVER,but it really sounded like a HANGOVER.Hope when he sets the soldiers up that he doesn't put them too near the edge of the table so they almost HANGOVER the edge.:D;)

St Pancras at 0738. 1 minute to debus from the train. 1 minute to briskly walk along the platform. 4 Mins to exit station. 1 minute to re-enter the station. 1 minute to leave the station via the correct exit. 8.5 minutes to power walk to the hotel entrance. 1.5 minutes to negotiate the crowds in reception. 2 minutes getting mince pie recipe from DD's mum, then, I'm in!

So about 8ish then. :rolleyes:

Tony wouldn't dare get food poisoning again. Otherwise the foodpoisoningwhichlookssuspiciouslylikeahangover (medical terminolgy) might get reported back to rugby playing mates in Durham, who I'm sure would be hugely sympathetic to his condition. ;)

Tony,

Can I have a German WSS121 Half-Track as well to pick up?

There may be more to follow, thanks to a truly great Mother-in-Law.:D:D:D

Andy
 
Andy,

You may want to give Tony a ring,as he will be loading up he might not check the forum today.

UKBOD

We are all loaded and it looks like there is no stock left on the shelves!!!

We have a few 121 on the truck so i will take it out when i get to London

We are leaving now 11.30am on Thursday as there is around a foot of snow around us for a good 50miles so i guess it will take a while to get down to the warmer south!!

Can i suggest due to the pre orders being so high and the show looking like it is going to be a busy one Andy that you get round to our table ASAp and remind me!!! thats if i forget!! about the WSS121 and i will then take it out of stock and you are safe for the rest of the day!

See all those there that are coming. Dont forget Shannon is in town so make sure you say hi and also pick up your TF pin..............i have them but i think best to give them to the Queen to hand out!

So, somebody else is commuting to work in the snow this morning, then? :)

Drive safely with all of those goodies on board, Tony. I'd love to be heading for London today. I am well over due for a visit as it has been a bit over 10 years now I think. Have a great show and cannot wait to hear and see the reports coming in from y'all.
