Can someone please PM me where I can get one of these from?

A mate spotted mine and asked where it was from. I googled it to no avail! Maybe the guv can post a link from my SS for us all?

I can only find them in South Africa..

Not sure if this is exactly the same, but it looks very similar:

Few other bits as well: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/FleursGifts?ref=l2-sh...

Well found. If you review my first picture you'll find its identical. The roof rack and Trailer kit are optional extras to the kit I had, but you will notice the packaging is the same as my 'bonnet kit'

Cheers to my SS. My kit has pride of place in my home office and another PH'er wants to buy one!

I do have a picture but posting a picture on here is such a chore. Thanks to my SS for the gifts

[The Beaver King]

Need to apologise to my PHSS for taking so long to get these up.

Absolutely chuffed to bits with my gifts; somebody finally bought me a FUGGLER!!

I'm gonna need some info on the piston though; I gather it's Ford, but no idea what from....?

Also received a lovely card thanking me for previous PHSS organisation




Big thanks to my SS, love the presents

Also a thanks to The Guv'; I know full well the 'issues' that can crop up while trying to organise the annual PHSS, but you've done a cracking job. Well done mate

[OldSpice]

Apologies to my SS for the delay - I've been away a fair bit over the Christmas period. Present was very much appreciated and came in very useful at new years!

BTW - thanks to whoever sent me the bike multi-tool. I'm ALWAYS losing my usual one- it turns up inside shoes etc and I needed it on a ride over the festive season/saved my 'ass. Cheers

Saving your ass was the aim

[TheJimi]

Aye, it was me and no, there were no clues

Good thing I discovered you were into bikes, I'd have been a bit flummoxed otherwise!

[giblet]

Could my SS kindly out themselves or just send me a quick PM? Gracias

[Dr Interceptor]

hora said:

There were also original sales marketing brochures that I really wanted/just missed out on too for you

I'll work on my packing skills for next year

Aww thanks for your efforts

The OH wrapped it up for me for Christmas Eve

hora said:

Really? Well apart from whining about car dealers I am a bit 'vanilla

To be fair, at least you're a fairly prolific poster, so that gave a decent amount history to trawl through. By comparison, by target last year was the bloody scarlet pimpernel

Looks like I should be after some commission then

Presumably the same people, but I got it from eBay, prices look to be the same. Search "Wooden FCX Land Rover Defender 90 model kit 110" if you want to get it from there. Very speedy and efficient service.

If my secret Santa would like to make themselves known to me can they. I have a little note from my son as a thank you for you.

'twas me, hope that it fit him ok (and you liked your gift?)?

[ChemicalChaos]

Likewise, if my So wishes to step forward then I shall congratulate you once again

Can you PM me your address so I can forward said thank you letter? He loved it. A little big but plenty of growing room. And mine was built that day. I love it. Thank you so much

Aha. My SS reveals himself! Thank's so much, it has pride of place in my new office, next to my new original painting of bramhall lane.

Eta: for anyone who buys one as a gift for someone. Buy a small pot of glue. Most of the bits are a snug fit but some are infuriating to fit without a dab of glue!

Finally have recovered from the second bout of 'flu so tonight is the night to tuck into my secret Santa goodies.

The tonic was sacrificed for a lesser gin and didn't make it in to the pic. Apologies for the stty photo but I wasn't going to faff around with photography when there was marzipan to attack.

Thanks once again to my SS

[Pixel-Snapper]

So after getting a bit too drunk on friday night and feeling ruff most of yesterday to cook the 3 course valentines meal I was going to do.

I decided to get the white out and do it today instead.

Here's me playing chef!



Thanks once again to my SS, I've yet to try the jam though.
