  1. That sinking feeling you get when...

     

    You know it's bin day, the leaflet says it's bin day, the website confirms it's bin day but the road is empty and you're the only person putting your bins out.

      My bins still didn't have much company when I went to pick them up but they had been emptied so I avoided the shame of bringing them back full.

      Vindication is mine!

  2. PLEASE stop using Status updates as a Tinder site. I want to know about White Rabbits and folks' Cats.

      You know you can Report status updates...

      But if we did that for every "personal message" status update I'm not sure that would go down well with the Mods!

  3. Wiring complete. Too scared to plug in controller!!

    Currently it is Schrodingers wiring - both working and non-working….

      Amusing concept but if you had checked the wiring as you went along you wouldn't be in this state of quantum uncertainty...

      Good luck!

  4. Sometimes it's best not to write about your issues in a public place.

      Probably a good idea to post about railway modelling occasionally...

      Another one for my block list.

      You tested your binfluencer status to the limit?

      Did anyone in your road follow suit?

      You realise this is a railway modelling forum, don't you?

  7. Why is Google complete rubbish at finding flickr pictures? (Or maybe flickr has a default 'no-follow' robots rule?)

    1. Harlequin

      Harlequin

      Yes, and running Google's Chrome browser.

      Do you think that makes a difference?

  10. 🤦‍♂️ Yet another totally wrong signalling explanation video by a well known YouTuber, I hope I’m not the only one frustrated by this!

    1. Harlequin

      Harlequin

      His modus operandi seems to be to get stuff wrong on camera and then announce several weeks later that he fixed it all off camera. (I hope his viewers don't follow his example!) So perhaps if you wait a little while... 😉

      You guys do realise you're doing all this in public on the RMWeb home page, don't you?

      Thank goodness no bank account details were shared!

      I was also starting to wonder. Maybe @Mikkel knows how he is?

  13. After 32 years, in the same property, I now have a Mole in the garden. Answers on the back of a fag packet as to what to do about it.

    1. Harlequin

      Harlequin

      Plant "Crown imperial" bulbs (Fritillaria imperialis) - moles hate the smell.

      I love the way Michael Palin launches into that speech in a very upper class accent:

      "Ew Lawd!"

  15. “This guest of summer, the temple-haunting martlet, does approve, by his loved mansionry, that the heaven’s breath smells wooingly here.”

  16. Please could you consider "un-pinning" the "Hornby 2023" items from the top of the Hornby Page.    They split the threads into two with a large gap between new items.   People know that the 2023 item threads exist, and can find them in future if they want.

     

    Thanks,

      There are bigger things to be depressed about than the World Cup.

      Happy Friday everyone!
