Brooklin Blog — diaries

Well, what started out last week as a fairly spacious, organised space....has descended into chaos! 3 lorry-loads of stuff coming back from storage will do that to a building. As you can see we have stuff on top of junk on top of rubbish. We are gradually getting shelving up and throwing out everything that we don't need (the scrap metal man has done VERY well out of us this...

As the singer Paul Young once sang… “Wherever I lay my casting machine, that’s my home”. Or something like that. We are now settled in and feeling like we belong. All of our stuff is coming back from storage on Monday so we will be very busy getting everything sorted. Back up and running at full speed very soon.

“It has happened. It has FINALLY happened. We are officially in our new factory. Ok, so it might be a mess right now but we are already feeling at home here. Photos!!!”

Hello and welcome to one of the last few weeks for Brooklin in Bath. Our planned new factory has fallen through but we have already found a new one (it's on the same estate in Paulton) We all popped out there for a look earlier this week and it looks great. We'll be moving in as soon as we can. Take a look for yourselves.

“DON’T PANIC!!!! We are still alive! Things have been…weird….that’s probably the best description. After so many years in the same building it’s odd to be renting a small office. We are keeping ourselves busy though. Have a look. And send biscuits!”

"And now, the end is near, and so I face the final truck-load. My friend I'll say it clear, Brooklin Models will soon hit the road. We've built so many models, that traveled each and every diorama highway. And more, much more than this, we built them the Brooklin waaaaaaaaay."

“Movin’ on up. We’re movin’ on out...” The relocation of BM Towers continues apace. Another skip was dropped off today and it is already half full. Join us for the demolition show!

IT’S HAPPENING!!! We have started to take some of our stuff to our temporary home. We’ll get you a video tour of the establishment ASAP. We are just boxing up the V16 engines on the work front.

T-MINUS 2 WEEKS. That’s all we have left here in Bath. Scary/exciting times! We are finishing up the last of the jobs here before we pack everything up.

Do-Do Doo Doo Doo….another week bites the dust. And with another week down we are another step closer to our ‘Locational Relocating Transitional Period’….Moving day………More packing the week and, rather surprisingly, some visitors!!!!

Wooooohoooooo. July. Half way to the Christmas holidays. But we have a lot to do between now and then. Plenty more packing and some building too. ONWARDS!!!!!

‘I LIKE THE WAY YOU MOOOOOVE’……as the song goes. We are well into the moving process now. Another skipload was taken away yesterday, and we have been ruthlessly sorting out everything. Not much happening on the assembly front, just finishing off the BRK 1LE and the V16 engines.
