Nothing wrong with sprouts. I had some last night. Sprout curry is lovely.

Hurricane warning in effect yet?

Gas marsk at the ready.

Yep, had same problem yesterday. Now works OK.

Yep when the BT E-mail plays up it asks for my password, after a day or so it goes away, so I assume they've fixed it...

Ok now but Has been happening quite often.

Doc said left lung quite noisy, right one not so bad. Oxy test showed 99% and I'm now on much stronger A/Bs as he's pretty sure its bacterial rather than a virus. Chest X-ray booked on Monday too. Must be feeling a little better as I'm contemplating some modelling tonight...

Thanks for concern, much appreciated!

Good to be reassured. Fitness 1, bacteria 0. Oh yes, don't go using Butanone.........

ah well I'll try again tomorrow

must have been a busy chap, he signed every railway teleprinter message I received in the 70's and 80's...!

One of my previous aliases...! ;-)

I'm thinking of a friend who uses walnut rede as his Flickr identity

All the best mate.

Cheers. I'd raise a glass in thanks when I get home but I'm still on the meds. There's a bottle of Old Pultney malt in the cupboard which I'll get tucked into in a couple of days.

That's the ticket. Napoleon's best for me at the moment.

I feel your pain...

Must be like trying to mask and spray a McCoys crisp..

No, they're not, I think I ate 'em!

Rule 1 = earplugs

Rule 2 = large Brandy

Rule 3 = fit Gresley Bogies

5 pints of Cornish Crown Stout was a good start...

Nowt wrong with the bogies on Mk3s IF they keep the wheel flats machined off and look after the bearings...

Yeah, the humour is a little less Playschool and a little more Boris these days.

I hope they still 'chortle' after a memorable fart...

I just took a PIL and anger was no longer an energy.

Anarchy in the UK...and lower taxes for the super-rich please...

Look out - it's could be the start of a World Destruction.

(Amazon have it for half price btw)

If you were the contractor given the job of building all of that, you'd be laughing too. All the way to the bank.

I'm so glad I'm on shiftwork! I go through there twice a day but only during the quiet periods. The odd times I go through at 0830, I have to allow about 60 mins to do a 12 mile journey...Once this lot's done, Hutbers Law will apply....

Pareto strikes from beyond the grave

It is a weel known rule of project management - the first half of the project takes 90% of the time. The second half also takes 90% of the time...

Trouble is, when I get to the finishing stages, I get impatient and try to rush it as I'm at the stage where I'm raring to get stuck into the next project...#comeoncomeocomeon.....

I have days like that. Deep breath and smile at the world(They won't expect that!)

Danger signals.

Kronenbourg 1664 - it helps.

have you tried varnish to attach windows or the stuff that aero modellers use for their cockpit canopy.

I've tried canopy glue in the past but it's basically PVA and lets go too easily. Varnish...not tried. Being honest, the window that dropped out was my fault. Clumsy fitting of a windscreen wiper. All sorted now.

I won't rest until I've put (the right type of) coal inside the closed fireboxes of my engines.

keep it thin down the front and build up the back corners to get the right shape. Oh and if it's a rocking grate. make sure the linkage works correctly!

I like Railroad detail, it's enough for me - Yey!!

A quick search on eBay: about

I had a similar event last year. A door from a scrappy and my usual garage had it fixed for about

Found quite a few, just got to choose the best one and pick it up.!

Don't blow your signals over ....

Parp!

The signalbox air-con is earning it's money today!!

You'll wonder why you never got one before!

Still plenty of practise required but it has a good "feel" about it. Plenty jobs lined up for it!!

just remember too check what it set too, before you use it just in case you forget, and zap a huge hole in an etch... don't ask how I found that one out....
