Okay...after a weekend away from home [at my parents instead] and a LONG day
at work [I won't be home till about 10 tonight], coupled with the low volume
of responses, I'm extending this till the end of the week :)

But I'll say this...Town is ONE of the 2 [or 3...I'll check
tonight..hopefully] ranges available in Australia that ran from 1978-1996.
Your other choice comes from 1) Trains, 2) Space, 3) Castle. I'll try and
get the '78 catalogue scanned sometime this week [but not tonight] to show
which the other was.

Sorry about not speaking up sooner,

Heck, mate - I'd settle for an answer - there doesn't appear to be much interest. Or perhaps it's because the second quiz question is in a reply to the first question? I'd recommend moving the quiz question to a new thread topic if that was the (...) (26 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

Well, it's coming around to the weekend mate. You going to post the answer or not? I STILL haven't seen any replies to this, and I'd like an answer this time, not a time extension!! Cheers ... Geoffrey Hyde Whytcross, Benjamin (...) (26 years ago, 2-Sep-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)
