Is this an actual loco, or a place in the (long) queue??

I'm allways slightly worried about entering incase I win something 32mm gauge only.... Not that I'd win anything anyway. Glad to see an increase in gauge convertable things this year!

I think I'd cope :lol:

May have to enter, would give my left arm for at least two of the prizes. Will have to rejoin the 16mm mob first though :lol:

You know I think this competitions deliberatly trying to annoy me, firstly the prizes are so mouth watering that its just cruel for me not to win :lol:

and 2ndly the year before last 1 of my good friend who lives down the road who didnt even go to Stoneleigh won... twice!

what are the bloody chances?!

last year I had a bit of a heart in throat moment because someone with the same first name as me won something and for a single glorious second I thought Id won but then they callled out his last name and shattered my happy time. :( :lol:

Id be happy with the Bertie even if it is a 32MMer, Id run it on my other layout :D

At least you got that close! :roll:
With my luck I win things like maiden voyages on the Titanic and trips on the Hindenberg :?
I consider my draw tickets not as "purchases" but "contributions to a good cause" :lol:

:?

I am normally somewhat lacking in the luck department -- but I am currently in clover. So go for it --- there is always a chance.

After all, the chances of winning the lottery are something like 1 in 1000000 -- but someone wins most weeks !!

:roll:
