Sorry, it isnt this sunday, its a week on sunday. Been postponed for a week...
We have had no end of problems, Meccano in france not sending the correct parts for weeks and then not sending enough and the engineering firm Atkins changing the plans halfway through the build..
We have just exhausted the entire stock of nuts, and think we have used 41,000 of them so far and over ?36,000 of meccano parts...
We dont have enough people, the Meccano clubs are next to useless.. The Newcastle group esp is a waste of space.. The made two sections to 'help' and turned up on monday all smug saying how they had saved the day, when in reality what they built was wrong. His '40' years of meccano experience was c**p then... Plus James said on camera that what they did was rubbish!! :lol:
We have been working on this for 5 weeks, working 9am till 9pm and Im cream crackered... One more week to go..
By the way when the program is on tv and James says how relaxing and rewarding Meccano is, its because he turns up for a few hours filming and the skives off again.. Very nice guy though
