Hi Unky.the set looks like one of the ones I got for my god son. Wooden with magnetic buffers so very easy for young hands to connect/seperate the carrages. In wood it has a lovely texture especialy as kids get so used to plastic it gives a nice alternate feel.
I got almost all the stuff for them from the early learning centre. I find it's all good quality well thought out stuff. Hes mad about trains so I got him a bigger set, plastic which runs in groved tracks and a battery powered train with a few bits and bob's. The birthday party was priceless. He was happy playing with one of the little characters from the set while 4-5 grown-ups were fussing over how best to set the rest of the tracks up.
Never got round to getting him a toy Aston Martin. His great grand father was a panel beater for them for all his carear
As for the woman, yes more than tipsy,havn't got a clue who they were. I'll heal (although today found wearing the harness for climbing a pole painfull. Glad it's not the older style belt as it would have put far more pressure onthe painfull bit) But with the gash to her head, god knows how she looks/feels.
