It actually came from an online retail furniture store.

Mrs Buna and daughter chose it because it 'looked nice'

When it arrived (two triple size wardrobes and a chest of 6 drawers) some parts were broken and some were missing so the whole order was returned TWICE and took over three months to get sorted

Never again....old man Buna pays for it so he will pick it in future (until Mrs Buna flutters her eyelids no doubt)

I have never acted, furniture online, would prefer to see the product before my eyes, and feel free to give it a "kick" to ensure the sustainability ... but when you mention this, so I remember the conversation you mentioned before,but I must course, admit that you had bad luck to be forced to send to back off, because of error, which is not a dream situation,

That is some nice planes Jim. And what's nice is they increase in value.

Well for me the big or should I say little 1\144 announcement is... I just ordered my first plane. The P-51D Mustang.

Now the ordering frenzy begins.

Just back from a four day trip to the north west with Mrs. Buna during which my retail therapy was helped with the purchase of three more aircraft:

A Red Arrows Hawk (no Brit diecast collection can be completed without one.
Another 'Brick' (Raspberry Ripple colour scheme).
A Falklands era Sea Lynx from HMS Brilliant.

I'll post again after I get a few piccies.

Well Jim, that lightning could very well be the one that inspired me to join the Air Force, I lived on the approach to Binbrook and used to see them daily as a kid and that made me want to be a part of it.

As for the Buccaneer, my last base in the RAF was at Boscome Down, home of all things raspberry ripple (paint scheme, not rhyming slang. Although...!).

I look forward to more pics.
