I made a profit!
Sales on the Bing'n'Buy £60. Puchases £18. That is the right way around, and best of all, the volume of items sold was considerably greater than those bought.
A couple of kit bundles leapt out at me. I'll always buy Cooper Craft tool sets, there is nothing better. I've also acquired some singboards for their letters.
Whitemetal cats? Well, they were only a couple of quid, and I like cats.
There were several kits I knew nothing about too. Normally, that guarantees they will come home with me, but this time, I was good.
John Day Models is a name I know, but not well. I've never seen this GWR halt though. Did it become the Wills halt with the pagoda waiting room?
I can see a use for this one day. But then I also fancy the 7mm scale halt from Peco. That will wait until I have real use for it.
Time to bank some cash!

Morning Phil,
Thanks for buying a load of my stuff (everything except the cats, I think)!
I'd acquired rather more than I'm ever likely to need, and where better to pass it on?
I remember the John Day kits coming out when I was in my teens, it predated the Wills Scenics range slightly and of course was a good match for the Airfix 14XX and Auto Coach, but I don't think the tooling is related.
There didn't seem to be many different kits, I only recall seeing the full halt kit and the platform and hut as separate items, but I didn't really get out of Hastings much back then.
Have a good week,
Simon.
