Might bump into you, I'll be the guy with a firefly engine in my pocket so likely around the SMEE stand where they are making one.

As for Guildford requests then I know a guy who can make a Stuart 10V in 8hrs so show us that girls can do better :Lol:

Wish I could just get up and go to things like that spontaneously! Some great engines Jo and no boring locos  :lolb: Only kidding, I like locos as well to be fair!

Love those economy hit & miss engines.
