and there's me just finished another banana van.

Eat whale meat and blubber. Well, who wouldn't?

Whales, whales,

Ever my heart is in whales...

Song for those fed up Eskimos? 'Whale Meat Again!!'

Blimey, your ears must be burning as well............................

Ah, I foresee a lighthouse emerging in the vicinity of a certain layout. After all if it can have one of those yucky Type 25 diseasals it should have a lighthousei

Enjoy the cafe at Dungeness Station.

Say hi to Stan and Oly for me.

Well done Stu, that's a great achievement, I did my 100 two years ago, I started by giving whole blood at 18, then went onto donating plasma cells, used to go every 2 weeks, it was a great skive off work whilst giving a precious donation for life, I have now enrolled my Wife and Son into it over the last couple of years #givelifegiveblood

I've got my third coming up on Friday :-)

Well done! They won't take mine. Well apart from Sisters Drac's little helper....

Avoid discussing gauge though or it could go nuclear.

How big will the model be? 2mm scale, 4mm scale, 7mm scale or Windscale?

Don't bother.... Find an alternative. Perhaps we should power our layouts from exercise bikes... You pedal and the trains run, as seen on a kids display of LGB at an exhibition in Germany some years ago. Model railways as education.

Hoping to see some period trucks suitable to model.

What's that coming over the hill? Is it Jethro?... Is it Jethro?

What's that coming over Carn Brea? Yes it's Jethro, Run away, Run away. (With apologies to The Automatic)

The local bobby used to be a Cardiff boy....

Filing for divorce ?

Spending (a lot) more time at the pub?

My colleague finds these status updates about matrimonial interplay very interesting. If it gets any worse, she's always available to help.... *kof*

I'm not building lots of things too. Some of them might not get built sooner rather than later

The things I'm not building fill most of my drawers and two shelves.

yes, I too have a sizeable maturing cabinet(s)...

Big enough for a scale toilet.

It beats trying to park and visit a real one !

How about a rail served granary? (No fish Smell)and in reality only 50 yard from one of Britains shortest railways. Only about 60 yards long.

Just make sure 'er indoors isn't looking over your shoulder when you answer the first question.

No one is prepared (or not prepared) to either confirm or deny the existence (or non-existence) of the secret or public survey that may or may not take place at some stage in the future or past.

It wasn't me I wasn't there at the time.

Stubby Jnr had a Falcon for Christmas - took him 5 hours to make

Some of the most enjoyable hours of his latest features I'd wager.

Many congrats...37yrs in and she is finally coming round I think...she's actually looking forward to a visit Gwili Rly with grandson tomorrow

Well done Stu - but you do need to give it time for her to adjust.

Give it time mate...................

Don't forget to test the test there Stu...

Hope ya don't get slated for it !

Preferred them narrating Engie Benjy

They'll love the high-tech toilets out there too.

Envy, envy, envy! One piece of advice. If they are travelling from Tokyo southbound (i. e. to Kyoto or Osaka), Mount Fuji is on the right-hand side of the train in the direction of travel.

Daughter had a month there last August. They are off to Kyoto (2nd week) and have checked the route past Fuji - the track always looks closer in the photos.

Just be grateful it was not a lancia it would have been dust by now

Horse they are known as white goods on wheels here in OZ.

V70 every time!

Go on, I won't tell swmbo.

It'll give ya pasty a lovely crust

I've just cleared a drain out.

I've just had a clear out!

Come back Boris, all is most definitely forgiven!

Sounds lovely, whatever the region or the reason.

Just as long as it isn't like something else from the 60s: "We choose to do these things - not because they are easy - but because they are hard."

Joking aside, I'm sure it'll work out well.

It'll probably need to, after one mag "for the average enthusiast" did a similar theme to death some years back.

Is Guinness the recommended libation to aid blood cell regeneration?

I cant give blood anymore, which is a shame as I am O-, Here they dont want it because of mad cow disease, and when in UK they dont want it because I have been here.

Can you donate your O- to any other country?

I've just done a shunting puzzle in the bog.

"I've just done a shunting puzzle in the bog" - Thanks, Boris...

Not unless I get an MMP kit for xmas..
