A lovely sunny day out with my group, with a iced over pond... well those that could make it...ending with having to leave the coffee shop...a fire alarm... all the drama. the girls took their drinks with them...I had to much 'stuff to grab' so in sunshine and cold, but hey! it was an experience.
You'd be forgiven for thinking I have just received a shipment of cheapo diecasts from AliExpress so you might be shocked to learn that this pretty crude Fire Engine can actually be found on the shelves of Waitrose where sadly it isn't too cheap! Its part of a small range of 1/64 diecasts sold there made by Zhongzhe Toys but quaintly branded under the House Of Marbles brand which I believe is a fairly old importer of toys and of course marbles.
I haven't yet classified it as generic simply because Zhongzhe models are usually based on real vehicles but I can't fathom which truck this is actually based on. Quality is passable but its the type of diecast which belongs in a Pound shop rather than a supermarket frequented by royalty!
Mint and boxed.

Volvo brought to the show a "New Fire Engine Concept" vehicle. The basic premise is that Volvo do their own chassis and bodybuilding in-house rather than selling the chassis onto a bodybuilder/converter to do the job for them.
Maisto 1/64 models may now be considered just sub Mattel cheapo items but usually they are licensed castings of real vehicles but occasionally some appear to be of a generic design. This Fire Engine ladder truck has a cab design which could be based on any number of U.S. or Japanese pick-up trucks but its very hard to tell. This casting has been around for literally years though strangely it has taken me till September 2016 to actually get hold of one and thats because its part of a new 20 vehicle set currently on sale at ASDA. Its fairly well cast but ultimately its what it was designed to be and thats a cheap toy designed with a short lifespan at the hands of a play hungry child. Mint and boxed.
Driving by this fire station one night I saw this scene. I just had to get a shot of it.

Illustration I did for a collab some months ago. Every artist gets one alphabetic character to work with. Here is my S.
Saturday, 14 October, 2017, was the first time I visited Winster just in time to make a pictorial record of a village local history "event" soon after it had happened.
As I drove down to the bottom of West Bank there was a crowd of people at the west end of Main Street blocking my way. A bystander told me that two vehicles had been on fire and the street was blocked off at both ends while the Fire Brigade cleaned up.
I parked my car and took these photos at two different times during the afternoon.
Fortunately, I understand that no one was hurt in the fire.
Two vehicles were completely burnt out and at least one other appeared to have been damaged. A nearby house suffered damage to windows.
