My Wife has politely asked me to "sort out that train sh#t" .... She doesn't normally swear !! I think her patience must be being tested a little :-0

I've seen some gadgets for ballasting but this has to be the best yet!

Down in Devon with the Family, proud day tomorrow to see our Son in his Royal Marine pass out parade :-)

Just broken up today and a "back to school" ad is on the TV

Peco buying Parkside.

The Blues had a baby and they named it Rock 'n' Roll

Son got me an August 1960 Bradshaw for Father's Day.

Who's doing an all-nighter tonight?

Is actually travelling on a service train for the 1st time in heaven knows how many years, the 09.02 Bangor (Gwynedd) to Cardiff Central, changing at Chester for Liverpool James Street, on a class 175 Arriva Trains Wales DMU, looking forward to it, buts it's not a a scruffy blue Whistler on a rake of 9 x blue grey MK1's ;-)

Does anyone know which issue of Railway Modeller magazine that had an article and track plan for Addiscombe? I remember it being around 2003/4 time.

Things very much put in perspective today, Dad in Hospital having a heart pacemaker fitted! At least it's guaranteed for life

Went to put a Dapol 08 with sound on eb#y and they suggested a price of £165.00 I thought sod off

"Kings of Cajun - 22 stomps from the Swamps" blasting out whilst putting up some baseboards :-)

Is thrilled about how bright some LED GU10 spot lamp bulbs are from Wilkies ....... gawd how boring has my life become ???

Today is Tuesday, so I must be in Dusseldorf. My daughter just asked me how many Dusseldorfers did I eat... She thinks every German city is a sausage.

just under 2 years ago my brother was told he had a rare type of cancer for his age (under 30) we have spent that time hopping one of the trial drugs would work then on Sunday night he was ill from his chemo so he went to hospital we have now found out that it has got much worse not much time left for him. thing were looking better last night but this morning he has taken a step backward.

Is contemplating selling his Blue Heljan 37 !!!

Wife is a Blue Badge Holder. At lunchtime we found disabled parking slot occupied by Nissan Navaro (Pick up truck as big as a 9F) but not displaying any blue badge. Probably because driver does not have ability to park such a big thing in a normal space! Such selfish actions make me mad!

Had the day off from scool - still feel rubbish with this cold. Been in my pj's all day.....

Busy making a Lego house with children in Y1 (5-year olds) at school this afternoon.

Cough cough cough, cough cough cough, cough cough, cough cough cough, cough cough, cough cough cough, cough cough cough, cough cough, cough, fart cough cough cough.
