    And there was light, and it was good. And there was power too. My new man-cave workshop is all-systems go! Just got to fill it with some new toys...

      Glad to hear you will be back in business looking forward to seeing more fine models.

    Railex today, curry tonight...happy days.

    Why, when there is the technology to make nice thin carrier film for waterslide transfers, do some manufacturers continue to supply their wares backed with something resembling cling wrap?

    1. Horsetan

      Maybe they are cling-ons.

      They're on the starboard bow, Jim

      Don't you think manufacturers are often a bit conservative. One might ask why so many continue to supply solid whitemetal 'axleguards' when the etched alternative is so superior.

      Whatever it is, Adrian, it is clearly not a euphamism for railway modelling!...

      Cheeky!

    New modem working fine, but now BT broadband in London and the S.E. has gone for a Burton.

  9. Buckjumper

    Gyppy modem; no internet is so 1980s. Hooray for smartphones.

    Trying to see the blue sky above the rain.

    I have a smiley, happy finger; I sliced the tip of it with a knife and now it gives a toothless grin whenever I move it. Hurts like billy-o too.

      Nasty! +1 for the strips, wouldn't be with out them. Abit of lint and a few more strips to hold it in place and you should be fine again. If you miss the "smiley face" you can always draw one on the bandage, hours of fun!

      Yeah, there'll be time enough for that. LOL

    For the time being I've given up being a rivet counter; I'm now a brick counter.

      Can you fit a model brick with a small electric mortar?

    3. Buckjumper

      Post-nationalisation bricks had intricate red/cream/grey liming.

      Didn't Andy Y do that for RMWeb? Oh you said Brick!

    I have one end of a stable wormhole in my workshop and a flywheel just got sucked in; one minute it was on my bench, the next it was gone. If anyone finds it please return asap. Ta.

      I also have one around my desk, but its effect would appear to be limited by the absence of carpets in my office. Don't ask me about the physics of it, though.

      I believe the pixies control the wormholes.
