      Doesn't matter if she wins or loses, the Radders done good!

      Amazing! Well done Emma!

      What a wonderful story.

    3. Hando

      Hando

      Her grit, determination and resilience was astounding! She should be very proud, especially considering she won her first grand slam at the tender age of 18!

  2. There's a parcel coming and I don't know what it is!

    Might be something exciting...

    (Or it might not.)

      If it’s my KRM GT3 could you be a love and forward it to me?

      Hugs etc.

      Aw, it was just a book being sent by Hermes rather than the post for some reason.

      Hroth

      I was going to say, did you actually have anything on order....

  3. Let sleeping threads lie

      That reminds me, why did people stop discussing the Hornby 4VEP?

  4. RMWeb is more responsive than the Hornby website! :-) ThumbsUp!

    1. BoD

      BoD

      The Hornby website must be absolutely abysmal then

    2. Allegheny1600

      Allegheny1600

      It is!!!

      (absolutely abysmal, that is)

  5. Fine words butter no parsnips...

      RJS1977

      Here, Joe. What's he going on about? You can't get butter and parsnips are out of season...

    2. Hroth

      Hroth

      Aldi have loads of the damn things on special offer (45p/500g) at the moment, all the butter to clog your arteries too!

       

       

  6. I've just found some photos of my old model railway from 40 years ago! :-)

    I will post them here if I can find the right place.

  7. "All the Stations" are live now on the first day of their journey around Ireland.

      I rather like their content, it works for both a railway enthusiast and someone who happens to use the railways a lot and informs them on the trains they commute on.

       

      The chap once did a video where he was counting the steps in a new underground station entrance, and then they counted the length of the platform at Gloucester in steps too.

       

      Has his partner got to visit Stone Henge yet?

  8. Sorry Mods: I think I asked for a topic to be moved when it was already in the best place... I'm mortified! Lesson learned - I won't be doing that in the wee small hours again.

    1. AY Mod

      AY Mod

      OK; I've moved it back.

    2. Harlequin

      Harlequin

      Thanks Andy.

      Actually I think I was right the first time but I won't ask you to move it again. Life's too short!

      Edit: That came out wrong. What I meant was, I don't want to pester you when you've got better things to do.

       

  9. is sorting through a box of Xmas lights, which all work to a degree but there isn't one fully working set in there.

    1. Hroth

      Hroth

      Its traditional!

      Lying is bad!

  11. I want to reply but RMWeb won't let me post! ARGH!

      mike morley

      On status updates? You are not alone. I had exactly the same problem yesterday. (But not now, assuming this actually gets posted!)

    2. Market65

      Market65

      It seems to have been fixed, for now, at least. And the banner is no longer across the top of the pages.

  12. is looking forward to getting the log-burner going for the first time this winter. Feeling primal and a bit pagan!

    1. steve22

      steve22

      Yule not regret it, O Druid.

    2. Hroth

      Hroth

      So you'll be dancing around the smouldering logs this evening?

  13. has just thought of something clever to say - half an hour after he should have said it! No-one will ever know...

    1. Hroth

      Hroth

      Happens all the time...

    1. St. Simon

      St. Simon

      GWR or Bubble?

    2. Harlequin

      Harlequin

      GWR No. 11!

      I'll have to build a layout to run it on...

  15. Someone across the valley has hung out some high-vis workwear on their fence. It's fluorescently unnatural!

    1. Mad McCann

      Mad McCann

      Slightly disturbing in a David Lynch sort of way..?

    2. Steven Draper

      Steven Draper

      In mine it stated that it is only approved Orange for do many washes !!!

       

  16. When did jumping on the spot while glitter cannons go off around you become a recognised celebration?

    1. chris p bacon

  17. We must draw lots! Eccles, write your name on a piece of paper and put it in this hat.

    1. locoholic

      There now. What does is say? "Mrs Phyllis Quatt".

    2. TT-Pete

      TT-Pete

      I don't like this game.

  18. I found a copy of "GW Auto Trailers - Part Two"!

    1. Ozexpatriate

      Ozexpatriate

      I take it there is no sign of part one?

    2. Harlequin

      Harlequin

      Part two is much rarer than Part one, for some reason. Been looking for ages...

  19. "A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man." Spell checker dictionary update required...

    1. Michael Delamar

      Michael Delamar

      A perfectly cromulent word.

  20. Expecting 3 deliveries but I've got to go out. How many cards through the letterbox when I get back?

    1. Harlequin

      Harlequin

      Answer: None.

    2. reevesthecat

      reevesthecat

      If it was me there would be 4!

  21. Garry Kasparov sounds exactly like Gru from Despicable Me...

  22. "Where's the cue ball goin'?"

    1. Hroth

      Hroth

      Not just the cue ball, the object balls keep going anywhere BUT the pockets...

    2. The Stationmaster

      The Stationmaster

      Usually into a pocket in my case.

  23. The standard of snooker is very poor this afternoon. I blame the wasps.

    2. Huw Griffiths

      Huw Griffiths

      Some people reckon they add a new buzz to matches.

  24. The "Rest of the World" are rubbish at Robot Wars. All mouth no trousers.

    1. The Stationmaster

      The Stationmaster

      Exactly so - something of a walkover.

      MarkC

      It's never been the same since Chaos 2...

  25. Thank goodness you're back! I was bereft!
