I rang modelsupermarket earlier to ask a release date/time for the Norev 1:18th Mk 3 Capri's & the Minichamp's 1:18th Mk 2 Escort RS1800 & RS2000.They told me the Capri's are due out the middle of 2010,couldn't give a release date/time for the Escorts but may get to know once the model fairs happen in Feburary 2010

When you put differnet wheels on these models do they just sit on the hubs or do they actually clip into the hubs so they dont fall off.

I had stabbed myself with a screwdriver in my finger and had it all bandaged up, Ruth thought it would be a good idea to give it a good squeeze and ask if it hurt (my response was ah ya bastard lol). That night Ruth actually got my number off one of her friends and sent a text apologising for hurting my already very painful finger. We kept in touch, nothing happened between us i must add, just as friends. Things hadnt been right with me and my girlfriend for quite some time and i decided to call it a day. A short while later me and Ruth got together.

Cut a long story short we moved in together and bought our first house in October 2005, got engaged in June 2006, married in June 2008 and are still going strong to this day. I can honestly say we hardly ever argue, i think we've had about 3 in the whole time we've been together and then they've hardly been shouting matches, more slamming doors then laughing at each other.

I see her not only as my wife but my best friend, i'm sure most of you on here will have heard that many times before but its true.

We dont have any children at the moment, hopefully we'll be lucky enough to have them in the future but for the time being we have two crazy house rabbits called Lola and Bailey.

I've put some pics on which i think reflect our relationship:







on our wedding day.....




Lola & Bailey



And now for my other baby:



Ruth's little Poglet


And thats the lot. Thank you and good night!
