    I'm skint (not like breadline or anything) but I feel I need some retail therapy, some new rolling stock or something

      I know the feeling. I was made redundant & have cut back/sold a lot of stock. Resisting the urge to buy another shunter!

    Bought a toastie maker, been pretty much cheese toasties for lunch and dinner for a few days.

      Bung some chopped onion in as well.... 

      Then ham and pineapple...

      That's the shopping done!

       

      I want one now...

      Watch the waistline, I had a period of cheese on toast for lunch everyday, kidded myself that grated had less calories as I wouldn't need to use as much - shirt popping shenanigans later I gave up the naughty cheese lunches.

      I was always told off for eating and talking at the same time - that's multitasking, isn't it?

    Couldn't get RMWeb to load earlier, was worried I'd actually have to do some work.

  7. Coldgunner

    An hour of work left and off all next week. Time to slack off on rmweb for an hour.

  16. Coldgunner

    Think my Talyllyn chassis has beaten my. Anyone know who can complete a chassis for me drop me a PM? :D

  17. Coldgunner

    The number of 'special' drivers out today is unreal. Seeing 46233 passing though has balanced me out though.

  18. Coldgunner

    Just watched the new star wars trailer. It looks like the saga may mimic lord vader, and ultimately redeem itself.

      Well that's reminded me I have a collection of LGB to use at some point.

  22. Coldgunner

    60103, on a set of maroon MK1's, or a fast freight?!? hmm...

  23. Coldgunner

    Possible ideas for future 7mm build, Hudswell Clarke 1800 liveried as Thomas?

    1. KCR

      KCR

      could also do a jinty fitted out as thomas running on Llangollen and rented out to many other lines. I was gonna do it with a Bachmann one but I got distracted.

    2. Coldgunner

      Coldgunner

      1800 is the 'real' Thomas. Would be a nice was to portray a real engine.

  24. Coldgunner

    Bought his first car and is confused. There's no buffers, the droplink coupling, no wheel flanges. How does this thing work?

      The big wheel in the cab is the brake, such a shock the auto industry hasn't moved over to vacuum braking yet.

  25. Coldgunner

    Had revised redundancy figures through. Safe to say the loco fleet will get bigger. Walking straight into another job certianly cushions the blow!

      Sounds like it's turned out OK, so well done!
