Toyfair - Peterborough




Basil!!!



Yesterday the 22nd saw Time Was at the Cresset Centre in Peterborough, not the shopping centre but the 'social centre' of Peterborough.



It was a busy affair for about the first hour but then became steady for about the next half-hour and then a trickle for the rest of the time, 3:30 seemed a long way off. However we did OK compared to some of our colleagues, we didn't make a fortune but we didn't lose money which was the main thing.



But I did have the opportunity to see some rare Fawlty Towers cars. These were made by Corgi and were titled after the opening credits of the episodes. Only 24 of each 'title' were produced. They were on sale, four of them, for £1000.00, the most expensive items at the Cresset. By the end of the day they remained unsold, which wasn't a surprise given the trickle of punters.



But at timewasshop.co.uk we have one of the models for a knock-down price of just £75 plus postage, what a saving!!! After all Basil is hitting it with a branch!



Just go to www.timewasshop.co.uk/OtherTV&Film and have a look, and you don't have to go to Barcelona.
