  1. Part of me wants to join in on this thread - 

     - but I've come to it late and it's taking an absolute age to read through from the beginning and I'm still only half-way through!

      I'm surprised you've both managed to not notice this until now, it's been brewing for days.

       

      All a storm in a boating lake.

  2. I wonder what some UK train operators might do, to reach this level of rolling stock availability?! - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/world-europe-63442530

     

  3. A little update for those kind enough to show interest in my efforts.  I'm still working out the best way to construct the girders for the station roof, I'm having a go at another City building.  This one is inspired by a still existing building down from the Bank of England.  If anyone knows where I can get any corinthian capitals for pilasters and columns I would be obliged for a tip.  I have created my own doric capitals from bit of scrap.

    Slightly unkind pictures that show up my hairy modelling but they look ok at normal viewing distance.

  9. And here's another thing. You remember all those idiots who panic-bought toilet rolls at the beginning of Covid? Latest thing is panic buying of wood chip cat litter! Unbelievable!

  11. Twice now today I have remembered the saying "if you have nothing good to say, say nothing"

  12. Yesterday I went into a local branch of Sainsburys, not a supermarket I normally use, in order to see if they had started re-stocking a certain food item. The female assistant couldn't find it, so asked her colleague, who told me that the product 'isn't ranged any more'.

    'Ranged?' 'Ranged?' What the Horrocksford is that supposed to mean in English?

  18. Woodenhead's photo studio about to open for the afternoon.  Ebay offer too good to miss, so more stock going.

  19. Jobs you don't expect to have to do on a Sunday morning - dealing with a potential paedophilic entrapment scenario. Thanks to the sensibilities of some members it's been swiftly addressed.

      I fear it will be blocked by Turkey owing to the number of Greek restaraunts that sprung up in the town after the works closed.

       

      Though objecting to Fenland District Council's application because it's just too flat and featureless is just plain mean.

      @Huw Griffiths which is why I am wondering why we've done so well, our politics hasn't altered yet we're popular again amongst the same people who previously gave us the cold shoulder.
