Foster Street - (Playing Trains)

Well today I was another year older, so in an anti-celebration mood the Domestic Overlord and I walked (yes actually walked), into our local town to partake of a meagre spot of breakfast, spot the healthy tomato :)

Once we managed to get on the outside of a weeks worth of calories, and still having the use of our legs we managed to walk home, this healthy living is easy. Anyway I set off to the railway room to work on a few of the outstanding jobs that never seem to get finished, and actually managed to get one of them finished, well sort of :) That's when it all went wrong before I knew it I had fired up the controller and just played trains.

 

Before I knew it one of may favourite 8F's was plodding around with a typical train

Only broken up by the passing of an even more typical local service

Soon another old timer was seen plodding round with another rickerty old local

Well I suppose it was not a total waste of time, as it provided a good run in for my recently overhauled 8F, but what I need to do now is get all those little jobs completed and out of the way, maybe I can start on them tomorrow, after another one of those breakfasts, after all they say its the most important meal of the day.......... until next time Happy Modelling :)

Happy birthday!

 

Sounds (and looks!) like the ideal way to spend it. The tomato's a bit much though, why would they go and spoil a good lunch like that? :-)

Happy Birthday Paul. That breakfast does look good!

The breakfast was good, very good and it kept the Domestic Overlord quiet, well for a short spell at any rate :)

I was only allowed one pint and Larger at that, I mean Larger, my body is built for Beer or the Black stuff. It's almost abuse making a chap like me drink larger...... :( Its not fair, I'm not sulking though, well maybe a bit

I might start a campaign to build a home for Domestically abused modellers, I reckon it could be goer providing the Domestic Overlord does not find out.
