I'll check on the redcoats Mark - are you OK for all other ships?

I have these from the underwater set, but could bring some other incomplete ships - maybe the trawler could lie on its side?
I have more fish and plenty of brown rocks spare if needed, plus the red sub.

Damo,
I was looking for something and came across this...


could this or the flags off it be used at the gymkhana?  I've taken one flag off the show how it just clips onto a pole.

I was also messing about and made these out of some flowers ...



Would you like these (and more of them) for the prize table?

Both excellent, Elaine.

Damo - I did not have a brown baseboard last year.  I would be happy to mix something up.  I was thinking of something like this www.dulux.co.uk/colour/muddy_puddle

Mark

It needs to be as dark as possible, really (to look like soil) I have got a roll of soil effect scenery matting which I have been using to make my turf rolls, but it would be far too expencive to cover the whole board using it

Yes, the wagon would be a nice touch.

I LOVE those ribbons :love: :love: :love:

I don't know whether we need anymore :-\ Does anyone know how many there might usually be ???

Damo :)

Elaine, Mark, is the Robin Hood film set covered?

Only if you needed any extra caravans or anything? If not then I can use it on the building site.

I'm panicking now as I don't think it's all going to fit in the car! :o

Damo :)

Damo

I'll make the board darker.  I'll see what I can mix up.

As far as trailers go I'd suggest you bring what you can and we'll use it as best as we can.  Good luck getting it all in the car.  Is it really worse than last year?

Well, we are coming in my car this year (which is an estate) but I'm bringing ten tonne of wood, hedges and fences and vehicles, Steck, System X etc :lol:

Plus the luggage for 3 of us :)

But I'll fit anything in as extras if I can once all the main stuff is packed :)

Damo :)

The interview with BBC Radio York is on http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/p00nh7jy. I came in about 1hr and 11 minutes in.

It felt a bit hurried - I didn't know how much time I would have - and I didn't mention anyone by name.  I had wanted to mention Playmofriends as a way of getting in touch with other fans of Playmobil.

And I didn't mention the large railway display this year but I guess its okay to hold something back and this should be more impressive in person than as a mention on the radio.

Love those rosettes Elaine - you clever thing!

Mark - were you nervous being on the air?

That sounded great Mark

but did I hear her say "little wooden people..."  :0

There's a lot to live up to with Hogwarts - I'm getting worried!

I can sympathise about feeling hurried and not getting chance to mention everything you want, I felt the same when I was interviewed about Kirkbean the first year.  Last year wasn't as bad because they came out and recorded the interview : I said all that I wanted to, but then they edited it to fit and left out some of the things I wanted to include.

It's all good advertising though.
