We buy limestone from Germany. Been doing business with the same company for over 4 years now. ~Every single aspect is faultless. quality, communication, lead times, service, price.

Vorsprung durch technic, innit! "Forward through technology" rather than the British model of "Backwards through bankers".

One of the companies that I do a bit of consultancy work for in Germany keeps threatening to take me, but we always seem to end up in a bier keller instead.

I don't have the space for a train set, so I have to make do with running a emulator of Transport Tycoon on my laptop. What is it within us allegedly grown men that makes trains and models so bloody fascinating? Our inner 'little boy' never leaves us!

it's not all about winning and losing, it's about taking part. They were the runners up and we all know what happens to those, just take a look at one direction :;): :)
