Quite a topical conversation around the Warrington area at present the energy crisis……I just hope that Warrington Council don’t get involved after having lost millions of pounds of residents money on an failed energy company

Thank you Claude that comment saves me having ask the two gentlemen to re read my comment ……oh dear did I not write the comment correctly

I think Lewis is like you and has gone to sleep too come on Lewis wake up and put us out of our misery

My partners son-in-law showed me some of his YouTube clips and he is not a train buff in anyway shape or form but he raves about his antics. He says that if he’s having a bad day he has a quick look at one the clips and it cheers him up …..we both have his new coffee mugs so I suppose I’ve become a fan. Think he needs to get the company that does the scanning for model railway figures and we could have him on some of the layouts

Whether Michael Masi was under pressure or not he as race director should be more up to date on rules and regulations than everyone else . What ever the position or result of the race outcome the rules were changed during the race

That’s, I’m sure a great relief to many on here ……if it did happen there would be questions raised in parliament

Any up to date news as to how things are working out at Llangollen

I bet your a happy bunny now the red is out of the Bed ……so who’s next for the toffees

Most enjoyable video Andy

Need to see if I’ve unpacked the camera …….I mean no model railway no shows to go too haven’t had a reason to unpack it yet

I think we all want to forget 2020 …..no railway /model shows just a lost year ……unfortunately age did continue

It’s started Andy block work is half down now will post later this week

Ok hello I’m still here I think ……probably in bad books as I have been reminded that I haven’t posted anything in 2021 ……..well it was a year to forget with everything that’s been going on. So a quick update ……moved house done all the bits and bobs that are associated with ‘moving house’ like decorating and spending a fortune on furnishing……just glad the new house is a small property …I think it’s called downsizing …..now I do feel old . Chumley End is still in store, along with all the many boxes that come with our hobby, as I have still to build the new railway room but fear not plans are now in motion and having knocked down an old brick garage and a lot of garden clearance the new shed build has finally been started and Chumley End will soon have a nice new home. I will describe the build on my other thread new home needs a shed so watch out for forthing updates oh yes Happy New Year Everyone

Enjoyed the latest video Andy did wonder why you’d been a bit quite now we know the old cogs have been turning again ……..rust alert !!!! I think the moving of the station is a cracking idea and I like the concept of only modelling one end of the station it gives you so much more room for storage etc . Keep up the good work me old mucker

Call me old fashioned conspiracy theorist but I think you have hit the nail on the head there Oldddudders

Thanks for all your wonderful pictures and input this year Jim Happy New Year

That’s a good idea be fairly easy to undertake on the inside siding and would give you greater depth of field from both sides ….that’s a yes from me over to the builder

Wishing you both a very Happy New Year and looking forward to further developments on Ramchester. Another year of inspired modelling from you both thankyou

Once asked How do you eat an elephant he replied ‘A mouthful at a time’ RIP

Simple no jab no play

People travelling from Britain into France have too have a valid reason to enter the country under new French restrictions……….to attend a prize gala organised by a bunch of cheats and liars does not in my opinion seem a valid reason to travel

I’m afraid you are probably right

Whatever happens in the coming weeks and any possible court proceedings I reckon LH would not accept any change to the Championship outcome and hopefully Mercedes would only be looking to get a serious change and clarity to the rules and how they are implemented. There is no doubt in my mind that the powers that be from the start of this season have been determined to make sure MV wins the drivers championship this year to stop the Mercedes and LH domination. The corruption within the sport is obvious for all to see and the fact that there seems to be no shame and no attempt to cover it up . There is no way that today’s events can be good for the motorsport world and I do wonder if some of sponsors will be considering their involvement on ethical grounds.

This sport STINKS

I enjoy looking at old railway maps it’s interesting to see what used to be rail connected. I often see old track beds from the cab of my wagon , (which you don’t notice from a car) as I travel around the countryside and it’s fun to check them at later on with a map. As my favourite line is the Cheshire Lines I’ve always got a map in the cab which doubles up when I need a good cup of coffee
