      Hi Liam, thanks!

      We bought the glasses a couple of years ago from the gift shop at Highley Engine Shed on the Severn Valley Railway. They are modern replicas.

      Cheers, Ade.

  5. Off to get my Covid booster jab. Hope I feel better than after my 2nd jab...

      Adrian Stevenson

      Pleased to report I am feeling fine. Just a bit of a bruised feeling to my arm.

       

      We went to a local Chemists for ours. The jab was painless too. Last one I had drew blood.

      I am an O Gauge devotee now after returning to the hobby after 45 years. I honestly don't regret it and would recommend it to all. These 08's with sound are great....

      Or how about the excitement of waiting for a decoder to arrive that your wife does not know about and hoping it turns up while she is at work...:D

  11. Move to Buxton in wonderful Derbyshire is complete, well all our stuff is in the house. Some work for Mrs B and me to get some semblance of order. The main problem at the moment seems to be locating something you have seen amoungst the boxes but can't remember where?

     

    Still at least the snow has arrived to greet us!

      Lovely part of the world to move to. I am right down in the bottom part of the county. Good luck on all the unpacking.

      No snow here yet!

      Cheers, Ade.

  12. I have been looking for decal sheets for some "O" gauge projects but have had no luck in find the right decals.

    :-(

  13. Starting to plan for the VE  Day 75 celebrations.  Not what we had planned on doing originally as we would have been at Peak Railway, so we are having a subdued event at home at social distance with neighbours.

  14. Hi Ade,

     

    Relating to a previous comment - after London our overall area has the highest mortality rate for Covid-19

     

    Normally end by saying Cheers but 332 dead is not good.

     

    Regards, Peter

      Hi Peter, all very sad.

       

      I am fortunate not knowing anyone locally who has caught it.

       

      Cheers, Ade.

  15. Pretty sure we have an unwelcome visitor in the house and whilst I am not showing any effects from it so far it will only be a matter of time.

     

    Front door will be out of use for a couple of weeks but business as usual in the old office for the time being.

  16. Yes, we're happy as fish and gorgeous as geese
    And wonderfully clean in the morning!

      You are a man of good taste!

       

      Have you seen Steve Hackett's versions on You Tube. Very good.

      We've got everything, we're growing everything,
      We've got some in
      We've got some out
      We've got some wild things floating about.

       

      It is my fave Genesis track.

  19. Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are

  20. I weakened and bought my 1st O gauge loco. I genuinely didn't realise it would be so big!

  21. Have been dithering about this as a useful addition, & finally decided it wasn't really worthy of serious GWR attention. However, your respray into GWR 12 idea has reversed my decision & now I must rush to get one after all!!!  Question - should I get one of the nasty black ones or the funny green one to get the best final oversprayed effect, do you think?

      I am going with the horrid green coloured one.
