Got the Call...from Harrods!
After waiting since last October I was contacted by Harrods today to advise they have a Black Bay Green for me.

So I will be off down to London on the train this Thursday to collect it.

Very excited as I have wanted one for a long time.

Happy to oblige, picking up Thursday.

Second Tudor pickup in 7 days having scored a BB58 Blue last Thursday!

Expensive few days

Now is probably the time to get those with all the attention on the 58 blue. Enjoy it!

Wear a mask and don't go via Leicester and you'll have a great time.

No going via Crewe, masked up!

I picked up a BB58 Blue last Thursday and now this comes two months earlier than they said last time I chased them.

Expensive 7 days, have told the "Boss" it's a "business trip".

Congrats Pete! You could request them to dispatch it to their newly opened Harrods Outlet in Westfield Sherpherd's Bush and pick something up for the boss while you're there.

Well the train tickets are booked and I will be in Harrods by 1pm (assuming a smooth journey) on Thursday for the pickup.

Thanks for the positives guys, I have a decent collection but I am strangely excited for this piece.

Will get some pics up on my return to sunny Manchester. I can't take my decent camera with me as Harrods operate a strict no backpack/baggage policy and you have to leave anything like that at the bag drop, the fee per bag is......£25

The wait list is running at 9 -10 months now my SA advises, post Covid.

Still great value imo

I think you might still get the fabric strap as well but need to check.
