Filling in probate and IHT forms, I've got a headache now.

My new life starts here and hopefully I will get back to posting more regularly in a few weeks time once I have organised a new modelling room in the house.

Having tennis elbow in both elbows is not conducive to good modelling, come to think of it, it's not that good for bad modelling either.

Well today did not go to plan did it?

I was preparing lunch prior to taking the wife to hospital for three appointments and a minor procedure when I heard a bang outside, Oh no, it was the coalman who had just ran into the back of my car damaging the tailgate and wiping out the rear lights, cue mad panic to get things sorted. All appointments made and initial repairs to lights tomorrow. Worst thing is I was taking the car in next week to exchange for a new one.

Oh dear! When trying to do some modelling this morning I dropped a 500ml tin of gloss varnish on my station building and platform. Did I; a) Swear but stay calm & plan a recovery action. b). Swear profusely and bin the dripping model in a fit of anger. c) Burst into tears, leave the shed, slam the door and say "S*d this modelling lark."

When my wiife said she had two tickets for a big show I thought it was too good to be true, it was, I ended up going to the Knitting & Stitching show in Harrogate with a bus full of Ladies! sigh.

Apparently we have a gunman holed up in his house just around the corner. I thought nothing ever happened in this village, just shows how wrong you can be.

Just got set up for modelling this afternoon when Grandchildren arrived so I have spent a most of the time playing with the Scooby Doo Haunted house and monsters. Looking forward to some uninterrupted modelling now.

Just back from a couple of days away where Mrs A and myself celebrated our 34th wedding anniversary, just catching up with things again for the rest of the day.

I have decided that being colour blind is a distinct disadvantage when it comes to scenery and mixing colours!

Time to harvest fruit & veg, cut hedges and have a general garden tidy up. No modelling today then. Sigh.

After a couple of days at the doctors and Hospital with the Missus my modelling mojo has completely deserted me:-(

Some Indian guy just phoned me to ask for my address details, when I refused he put the the phone down on me. How dare he, I wanted to do that!

Looking forward to York tomorrow with my neighbour Ken Harland, my first visit to a show for almost 10 years.

first covering of snow for this part of the East Riding today followed by bright sunshine.

Why is it when you have just cleared some space in the shed/garage the wife always says ' can you put this stuff in the garage, I've no room indoors' where was it then? it's a mystery.

Just been round to see my near neighbour Ken Harland and York Central. Very good. I shall have to take him up on the offer of running my kit built locos on there, if they still work!. That is if the scale wheels cope with the sharp curves too?
