Does anyone know where "sherazhyder" has gone?

Post by Steve »

I got into some discussions and correspondence with Sheraz last year about HMV colonial models but I've heard nothing from him since October 15th, exactly 3 months ago to the day and the last day he visited the forum and posted here. My PM's to him are unread.

Does anyone know if he's alright?

Very strange indeed, my last email is from 15.10 also. He mentioned beeing in Beijing, China then.

I hope he hasn't got himself a job knocking out Crapophones, the production of which appears to be steadily rising by the day. Who buys them and why? That is what I want to know. :)

If what we increasingly see on TV and film is anything to go by, they are bought by the suppliers of props.
As far as these people are concerned, anything with a shiny brass horn will do.

Many good period productions are ruined by the appearance of a crapophone.

Ebay keeps sending me offensive emails full of them.
