  1. Trying to add a steam pipe to my LMS Pull-Push conversion. So far I have glued the pipe to my thumbnail and a cocktail stick to the underframe. DOH!

      Just tell them that the cocktail stick is a shunter's pole. Can't help with the thumbnail though :-(

  5. She stood there bright as the sun, On that California coast, He was a Midwestern boy on his own, She looked at him with those soft eyes, So innocent and blue, He knew right then he was too far from home, He was too far from home, She took his hand and she led him along that golden beach, They watched the waves tumble over the sand, They drove for miles and miles, Up those twisting turning roads, Higher and higher and higher they climbed...

      … until the battery on his Tesla ran flat and he remembered that there were still no charging points in that part of the state. As he stared at the dashboard, the words 'DON'T PANIC!' appeared in large friendly letters, which was an oddity in itself (waits for audience applause, not a sausage).

      Sorry, I looked here worried there was going to be another blog bizarrely featuring Peppa Pig.

      Lunchtime in Winchester today, it felt like towards the end of that Nicolas Cage film 'Knowing' (2009) - weird!

  8. I will be issuing a press release later today expressing an interest in investing in more biscuits

  9. If a Minkowski spacetime contains a compact region Ω, and if the topology of Ω is of the form Ω ~ R × Σ, where Σ is a three-manifold of the nontrivial topology, whose boundary has topology of the form ∂Σ ~ S2, and if, furthermore, the hypersurfaces Σ are all spacelike, then the region Ω contains a quasipermanent intrauniverse wormhole.

  10. Well that was "interesting". Just been evacuated from my sisters house due to a chlorine gas "incident"!!

      Apologies BlueLightning, only just checked RmWeb to see that your 'incident' last night was no laughing matter!

       

      Hope all is well with you and yours (and all others affected).

  12. Underground, overground wombling free . . .

      I have a feeling that Wombling for free, is one of those things we will loose in any WTO trade agreement :-(

      Apparently, here in the south of the UK, its been 20 years since we have had this many consecutive days above 30 degrees. As my dear old Yorkshire Gran used to say 'They don't know they're born'.

  16. TWY RDG ANIMAL ON LINE 09:18 TVSC SSM advised the Driver of 1R02 reported a swan on the Down Relief line at Kennet Bridge Jn. The Driver managed to pick up the swan and convey to Reading in the cab. 09:27 Reading MOM advised he is with the swan in the waiting room.

      Update! Swan fined for not having a valid ticket (though this may turn out to be a mute point).

  17. I really wanted to Twoggle a Drangle but unfortunately there aren't any currently available, is there an alternative?

    1. steveNCB7754

      steveNCB7754

      Unfortunately not. Since the EU introduced the quota on Drangles, Twoggling has become a rich man (or woman's) game - shame!.

    1. steveNCB7754

      steveNCB7754

      'Thundersnow' is actually a subtle variation of 'Thunderpants', which afflicts people with chronic dandruff :-)
