I'm in the Sun tomorrow!

x-pack · Apr 13, 2017

I got asked to do a little piece on collecting for the Sun. It's supposed to be about big boys and their toys but I think they're going down the collectors route, rather than cars and motorbikes.

Interview wasn't anything too deep, so right up my street. I want to see who else they got and what they collect.

Oh please post a picture or link up to it as The Sun won't quite reach me over here in the US, it sounds like something worth reading in there for once!

A good read

Nice Star Wars Loft Cave you have there.

db94 · Apr 15, 2017

Chuffed for you but sorry wont give those fuckers a penny or an internet hit.

theforceuk · Apr 15, 2017

Nice one Barry, don't let the fame go to your head though. :lol:

spoons · Apr 15, 2017

No fan of the Sun either but great to see you in the news Barry - your fame is now widespread!

x-pack · Apr 15, 2017

I do understand the bitterness toward the Sun but I can tell you the three people who wrote and took photos for this piece are decent people ...one is my wife!

Of course I cant speak for the rest of the staff. Most, if not all, were probably still at school when those lies were published.

I think the controversy surrounding Kelvin McKenzie's story yesterday shows that nothing has changed at "The Scum"! Still printing racist and hate filled lies

I am really pleased that your story got published and I know you're a good guy just wish it was for a different paper that's all.

sparkysx · Apr 15, 2017

Read my parents copy of it earlier today just to read your interview, god stuff, saw you at echo aswell without realising it was you!

Stuart Skinner · Apr 15, 2017

One of the good guys in the hobby - nice read Barry x

Glad you got some press, sorry I can't read that rag, cheers

Good read, nice one man. Never knew Rod Stewart was a model train enthusiast. This article is quite interesting.
