Ooh, looks like a trip to Andover or Newbury might be in order. Adrian

I think we need a "verily the mind boggleth" button. "Interesting / thought provoking" doesn't really cover it. Adrian

One of the Scrapheap Challenges built one to propel a vehicle. Adrian

Some years back, I came across some one who lived in the land of Telf. Discussion was regarding human rights for the kiddie winks in the local school where he had the misfortune to be employed. His comment was something along the lines of "Human ?, they smell like skunks, eat like pigs and fight like rats". I suspect that our resident even toed ungulate may have a view on this. Adrian

I don't think that they could afford my appearance fee, apart from which, I declined the offer of a free copy. Adrian

Post away. Just my two penn'th, but I think that B&W works better in this case, it looks more authentic as there was less chance of decent colour photos being taken back in the day. Adrian

I was wondering who'd be the first to notice. Nice looking spot. Adrian

I think that is an interesting proposition. https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/54.40084/-1.70802 (OK, not a parish, but a hall). Adrian

I suspect that I'm not alone in hoping that someone has worked out that the track bed needs to be a bit higher than those earth works, otherwise it could make for some interesting travel. Adrian

How did Loco coal get to a shed?
figworthy replied to Southernfrance's topic in UK Prototype Questions
"Narrow" generally implies 7ft wide locks, which wasn't the case with the Thames & Severn Canal. No doubt some one thought it was a good idea at the time, but the Thames & Severn had locks 86ft x 12 ft 3, whereas the connecting Stroudwater Navigation were 72ft x 15 ft 6. Adrian -
Could be a Cow'us. Adrian

Here at the Manor House, the evenings are already drawing out (a whole minute so far), but the mornings are still drawing in, and will continue to do so until the end of the month. Adrian
