    If ever you are in Truro, please do drop in to the workshop and say hello.

     

    I even have tea & coffee, but can't guarantee there will be any biscuits left.

      Well done. I used to do this but the last time there were complications and they asked me to stop. For anyone wanting to start, it's very easy to do.

      Wouldn't have me ... something to do with childhood jaundice.... That was a mobile unit in the works canteen and during my first month of work after leaving school.

      Had a very good friend who made a century of donations. 

      I have twice been on the receiving end  of the blood transfer system. Just two "units " in total.

      On hold at #42 while undergoing some medical investigations. Mustn't B negative though, but I actually am....

      Well done, and I'm still hoping to go beyond the 50, having started a bit late in life really.

      I thought that looked like a made up word until I looked it up on Google.

      All I can say is that it all sounds pretty unlucky to me (and ever so slightly sinister).

       

      Take care.

    If you've not had enough football... the Barclay's Fantasy Football competition is now open.

    All last year's players should be automatically added.

    I almost, almost thought about buying some 7mm track & a loco today. Was very close.

      I, too, have mentally noodled on 7mm. A tidy shunting plank would stand in until I have the space for my 4mm plans. But I’m now just planning a 4mm shunter instead.

      These are not the 7mm locos that you are looking for.

      I gave on Friday, the anti bac hand wipe was ok but the pressure washer was a bit OTT.

      I think it's good of them to support us.

  18. Stubby47

    Stood outside the village barbers, which opens at 10:00, and down wind of the Chinese takeaway. Is it too early for Sweet & Sour Chicken Hong Kong style?

    1. bgman

      Its not fair, my new years resolution was doing so well!

       

      So which one, eh?  The ordinary train pack or the limited edition with the certificate and jazzy box?

       

    2. truffy

      truffy

      Golden rule: never make a NY resolution that you know you can't keep. Or, do as I do, and embrace failure!

       

      Rocket. W1. Lovely!

       

      Oh, I can live without limited certificates and jazzy boxes. Besides, 1500 isn't that limited!

      You want it, but do you need it?

  21. Stubby47

    So we have the opportunity to decorate our desks for Christmas  - I'm thinking a circle of track and some green felt scenery with brown felt cones for mountains and some lit up buildings...
