Royal Coach Problem

Post by MDLR » Sat Dec 19, 2015 11:44 pm

I've got a little problem.....................


Image

I was given a kit to build a model of this coach, which I understand may have been used by Queen Victoria when she visited Dinorwig.

I dug it out of the pile of Kits To Be Built earlier this evening, and assembly is proceeding rapidly. I'd like to do a review and give the supplier feedback, but I've totally forgotten who it was, and the sheet of instructions hasn't got any relevant details on it.

Could the supplier contact me off-list, and if anybody else knows who supplied it, can they tell me? One clue: the instructions talk about giving it to schoolchildren to build, so he might just be a teacher.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

I think the implication was that it was easy to build................

You should get Rob Bennett to make you a "busybody" Queen Victoria to sit in the coach. That would be quite amusing. At least, WE would be amused!

That's a good idea, but I suspect I'd have to wait nearly as long as she reigned to get it.....................
