    Congrtatulations Ged, thats a cracker thing for you, your family and your friends, I hope the day goes well.

    Hey ,ive just had a thought, maybe Lizzie & Phil after seeing your model may decide to commission you to do one of their place.......if they do then leave out the graffiti bit and also any corgi poo around the grounds

    And don't go getting into any arguments with Phil, you know what he's like for passing comments!

    I am also invited to give a talk on gallery at the site at my model towards the end of March. This apparently after the museum attendants have had many enquiries as to the model builder with questions asked that they understandably could not answer.

    The visit to the city will again undoubtedly give Liverpool more media coverage in the good light it has attracted for some time now.

    Well done Ged. Don't forget to point at the queen when she comes in and say 'that reminds me, I must buy a stamp'.

    A lot of the above of course is concentrated on the L.O.R and the line of docks it served.

    Oh and of course, Liverpool's big news story was that the Museum was offically endorsed and opened (a rare occurance these days apparantly anywhere) by The Queen and Prince Philip.
