i have dug out my tomy christmas set, which i bought second hand and customised the tracks and a replacement thomas and percy with a can of white spray paint.
since its quite a decent size, it has a large empty area in the middle. i have decided to use my lego christmas toy shop and other assorted bits and bobs. i may also buy the lego christmas bakery off trademe, to fill in more of the space. hopefully it will look quite good. i wanted to have the station facing in to the middle, so had to hunt down two adapters. a touch of spray paint, and they are ready to go.
i might add some trucks of "toys", like the zaini toy story figures currently sitting in my mehano wagon. i will also decorate the annie and clarabel with tinsel etc
on sunday, i was helping my friend michael shift a freezer when blair pulled up. hes an absolute legend, he had picked up a replacement key for my hornby wind up thomas. its nice to finally see the little guy move around the track... he goes quite a distance. hehe
