I've no idea tbh.

Well today's race was a snoozefest!

When I get a parcel from Derails, my youngest asks what is it and can I have the biscuits please?

So some DIY has put a stop to progress. But I have managed to do something. I bought a battered Scenecraft Highley box for its chimney. It so distinctive and it was easier than making one. I have struggled with the yellow brick painting and this is my best effort. I'm still not happy with it.

I also took the plunge and 4321 arrived earlier today. Looks the part and runs a dream on my rolling road. Not a hint of wobble.

She looks the part.

As much as I like Lewis, I think he has given up on this year already. That was clear when he asked if he should let George past!
-
Not a bad race. Ricardo and Sargent need to go. Not doing the teams any favours. Ferrari have dropped the wrong driver. Albons chassis on the way to Grove for repair. Williams won't have a new one until Miami at the earliest.

Welcome to the club! I can't read a vernier or indeed this forum without my glasses.

I've just stumbled across this and ordered one. I spent a fair bit if my teenage years applying black tar varnish and drinking tea in it.

The speed of collapse is unbelievable and one end literally pivots around the support. Fortunately the outer flat decks stayed up. Trouble is once the forces are out of equilibrium its only going to end badly. Thank goodness it was not during rush hour.

I think the crowds reaction to Crashtappens retirement says it all really and they were behind Sainz.

Work on the box is progressing well. My thoughts are turning to the lever frame. The link below shows the 1960 track plan. I believe the numbers next to signal and points relate to the levers. But which is the point and which is the lock? https://signalbox.org/~SBdiagram.php/?id= 669

I'm imaging something along the lines of Allo Allo. Fotowsh*t!

I'd have told him to go and get a Castle instead!

Thank you. Yes tears of joy tonight compared to yesterday.

A neighbours cat tried to bring a dead rat through the cat flap. The cat wouldn't let go and the rat was so large it wouldn't go through. It was entertaining for a few minutes.

What a difference 24 hour makes. Marble is home and settled himself between us on the sofa. Just got to get vitamin tablets into him twice a day. Thanks to all of you who reacted to the posts and commented.
-
Marble is making slow progress. He's even had a wee and is a bit more active. More blood tests to see how things are going today. Hopefully an update later. I went into the vets this morning to pay the bill to date. I shall be stopping his pocket money for the foreseeable future.
-
They are pumping him full of vitamin K in order to improve his clotting. The count is supposed to be 35, he was at 30 when we took him in yesterday and 8 this morning. His paw was clearly bleeding between Friday and Saturday before he went back in. He's not the brightest cat, but very vocal and affectionate.
-
Marble is still at the vets and we didn't think he would see this evening. He has internal bleeding and his blood isn't clotting. Blood tests show He has somehow ingested rat poison and that's what's causing the low platelet count and internal bleeding. He has had some food and is still purring. We wonder if he got caught in a rat trap that damaged his paw and then ingested the poison. We won't know! But the others are being kept in against their will for the time being.
