'New Southampton'

Just a quick heads up to let you know i've put a 'New Southampton' with trim up on ebay scheduled to night. A really rare team. It's a real gem, sad to let it go, but the ski fund is getting bigger:roll:



Here's some pics if you are interested.

Can't find it, Ian. Isn't your eBay ID, "loftclearance2008"?

Yes mate...It's not scheduled until after 9 oclock.

Thanks for clarifying this, Ian. I misunderstood and thought that it was ending tonight.

great looking team Ian ,hope you get some good money for the ski fund

So do i mate. I don't really want to sell it, but i've just found out my Racing has doubled my insurance Policy. Looking at £500+ for the year.

racing ?

Ski Racing mate. I do Giant Slalom and Slalom. Doing my Race Coach badge in Canada this Season as well as my Level 2 Instructors Certificate and competing in the Masters events. I'm having to pay as much as the World Cup Racers do, which is ridiculous. This old fart doesn't go half as fast...I wish:oops:

Wow - I'm impressed! Since I stopped playing sunday league football, I have to make do with a 3 mile daily walk for my exercise (part of my daily commute to work and pretty dull).

Do you manage to paint any teams on that long flight to Canada?

Not painting so much these days mate. Just occasionally. I'm Spending any spare time at the gym getting fit for the coming season. I got really unhealthy spending hours painting. So much so...people noticed. Sitting breathing in those humbrol fumes aint good long term. One of the Lionhearts actually told me last time time that i looked grey 2 years ago, and now since cutting down the painting, i'm back to normal...though some might disagree:lol:



Makes you think about the health of all those outworkers, painting for hours on end.



Notice your in Berkshire. You should get along to some of our flickabouts over the winter.

Probably will in the new year. I've just moved house, so with the extra space I should be able to have room for a pitch mounted onto a board. I haven't played properly in decades - so I need the practice.

Not my cup of tea, but a REALLY nice team and box!



As you may know I am more into "exotic" teams LOL

No worries mate...most of us were in the same boat not so long ago. Some of us still haven't improved... It's all good fun, nothing serious, and just as much collecting and footie talk goes on as well as playing. More a social occasion.
