    I am busy organising Team Leicester of this event. if anyone would like to come along let me know. We are taking 8 brothers, 4+4 morsbag coaches, 2+2 morsbag informers and me floating around. Everyone will be doing a 3 hour shift and also be able to have a good look at the exhibition and try out the cafe off course! All the Brothers are being dropped of with Steve for servicing on saturday. I shall also try to see if the manager and myself can go on Rupal’s radio show. “citing!

    The Brothers are well well overdue for one of Supreme Steve’s services. One of them only runs very slow. I have changed the foot pedal in case it is that but still ran slow. All 12 Brothers are off for a service next week.

    Agwen, that would be fantastic if you can come. We are in a different school this time – Leicester Grammar School in Great Glen. If you are planning on staying the night Market Harborough Travelodge or Great Glen Premier Inn would be the nearest.

    Yes deffo best to check!

    I have just phoned those nice people at Brother. I explained the problem and the techy guy said ‘what are you using to tighten the screw?’ ” the white screwdriver that came with it’ I said ‘don’t use that’, he said ‘ It doesn’t fit!’ 😕 ‘use a 50p piece, and if that doesn’t work ring us back and we’ll send you a new foot/screw!” He was very amenable but there are questions to be asked!! Anyway I shall try the 50p on Benny’s foot and see if it works!!

    sorry it is Saturday 23rd August. Here is a link to the centre which used to be part of my son’s school. I was pleased to hear they are keeping the original features.

    Yes it is always very tight, in fact I am wondering if it has been over-tightened at some point. It is one of the old ones, Yes I shall see what Steve says. Yes it is a vibration thing. Maybe new screws all round? It is very annoying when it is a busy event. Thank you Frank and Beattie.

    Hope you can come to the Big Textile Show because Waley has a new hand crank that could do with a bit of a once over and I would like to take you to the new R3rd centre!

    The manager was very excited that we were coming! It won’t be quite as convenient as having a room with everything out but we can adapt. There will be some storage space probably 8 of our big storage boxes, 4 brothers, and a wooden trolley with the stuff we need- scissors, labels, kits etc. The storage room is upstairs but there is a lift.

    I shall pass on your best wishes to Roger!

    @Masterclock – we have 2 of the older Marx brother Brothers whereby their feet keep falling off. Might it be something to do with the thread on the screw? It is not the bottom bit of the foot but the whole thing where it is on a screw. They are being serviced before we do the R3rd Visitor Centre event but wondered if you have any ideas

    Thank you Beattie, yes Lili is coming home with Bo Jangles. At the moment they are together in the house so they can get acquainted!

    Peggie Sue is the tortoiseshell kitten. There are 3 between mum’s front legs and she is the middle one of the other 3!
