    Got some post delivered to me today. It was addressed to Mr Dilkington.

      Chimpanzee that!

    I'm thinking of selling on my OO Gauge NSE era SR/3rd rail stuff if the price is right. PM me if you want to know what might be available.

    I'm getting sorely tempted now. If SWMBO asks, what's O Gauge?

      The appeal of O gauge is inversely proportionate to one's eyesight focusing ability.

      Just keep repeating over and over: "I don't need it, I can't house it, I can't afford it anyway."

    What a long week. Looking forward to having some time to myself tonight. Need to flick through RMWeb and get my modelling mojo back!

    I want a Bachman Warship all of a sudden, despite them not falling into either of my main modelling interests. Must stop looking at photos of them in grotty BR blue...

      18th March 2018 minus 20 years = 1st June 1967? Gosh, I'm younger than I thought.

      Only going to be a light dusting down here.

    Why have I only just discovered Railway Bylines?

    1. Hroth

      Hroth

      Perhaps it was hidden under some "Wonderful Flying Scotsman" bookazines? They do tend to get a bit rampant and need culling....

    2. tractionman

      I've a soft spot for Railway Bylines, but went yesterday to buy this month's copy from the local newsagents and was put off by too many pictures of bridges and signals! Sometimes it's just too eclectic, so I bought Steam Railway instead.

    Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. COYG!

    Snow over here in Norfolk. Very cosy.

    I've never been a dog person, absolutely hate them. So why do I want a Mini Schnauzer all of a sudden?

      Labradoodles....mad as a box of frogs, intelligent and a more loving and loyal animal you'll not find 9yes we do have one)

      There are many different dog breeds and mixtures of them, but everyone has to check out for themselves what is best for them. For example, we have Golden Retrievers.

    4. Hroth

      Labradors, lovely dogs, marvellous temprament but foodaholics and impossible to keep out of water!

       

      Friends of ours were beginning to get funny looks from the police after theirs found a third dead body in the canal...

  13. NXEA!

    Book on the Thaxted branch ordered. Here's hoping a J69 is announced next week...

    Supporting Arsenal is not good for your blood pressure, nor sanity.

    1. BoD

      I suspect supporting Liverpool Is even worse.

      As a Liverpool supporter, whose senior colleague is a rabid Arsenal fan...

    Thank God for Aldi.

    Has anyone got a spare tender screw for the D16/B12/B17? Removed the tender for my B12 to fit a chip and one screw has gone walkabouts.

  19. NXEA!

    Can someone gouge my eyes out so I can stop lustily eyeing up 009, please.

    1. Hroth

      Hroth

      Nope, just get it out of your system by looking at CJ Freezer Rabbit Layouts...

      I'm gutted, I love snow! On my way to London this morning, and it appears the furthest east it got yesterday was around Ipswich.

    Yesterday it was 12 years ago that the last slam-doors were withdrawn from the SR. Much missed, if you ask me. Still, at least we have some lovely models of them!

  22. NXEA!

    I love Pink Floyd, but listening to them makes me exhausted afterwards.

      I know two people who have built the whitemetal kits (ex-Cotswold?) and both found the tender was so ridiculously heavy it rendered the loco barely able to haul even a modest train.

    Hullo! Rapids Johnson here
