My apologies; I haven't been on this site very long and haven't read all the posts.

Hi Dave

 

It doesn't matter, most things on this thread get repeated. Like "Leave it alone" and " Would look good as a Forest of Dean layout". The lad Peter's never listens. :dontknow:

Back to Square one, ???? last Saturday I had some visitors, and we ran into Dore End, but it was later ripped up and a new idea was offered to the wood. Not completely convinced that it would look right with Blue 08's etc.

 

It has now been re laid, and is now, as it was last Saturday. pics shown last week.

 

I hope to be back to normal once my Water leaks, and my Mothers problems are sorted.

Luckily it's NOT my Water Works mate, but the Shower, it's running down the back of the cavity, and under the concrete floor of the Bungalow. Now being sorted next week, thank goodness.

Due to a change in circumstances, the Railfreight 20 is now on offer.

 

Numbered by Jintyman = 20156, (one of the ''0''s has rubbed off a bit.

Sound fitted by Jintyman = Paul Chetter / Zimo, and big speaker.

One Motor has been removed (but is in the Box), to allow use of a Std ''OO'' Chip. On a small Layout, (mine is about a 30ft run, it performs fine and will pull a decent Train.

It has had less than 30 minutes use, due to Track not fully laid.

PM for more info please.

A Large and a medium bass reflex speaker, so twin speakers and a very crisp sound, even if I do say so myself.

There we go, strait from the Horses mouth,   Cheers Jints, I wasn't sure, so when running as a pair, (with my Blue one) I have F O U R Bass Reflex Speakers working, no wonder it sounds awesome.

[Andrew P]

I've treated my self for Christmas, well if I don't, no one else will.

Jints will pick it up in January, and fit the Sound and Drivers whilst the body is off.

Yeah, I spoke to Jints the other evening and he told me about his problem with the System.

 

I will post some pics of the changes in a day or so, but have a busy couple of days coming up, with my Mum and Club tomorrow and then the good people from Direct Line coming to sort out my leak on Wednesday I hope, only taken 19 days, haha.

[Andrew P]

Thanks Direct Line.

What a load of Bo--ocks mate ....it mean't someone getting their hands dirty.......and your not covered for that either ....I'd be changing my insurance company next time round 

[tender]

Trouble with Insurance is you only find out if it's any good when you make a claim. If they're rubbish your stuffed, just like a Turkey.

 

Hope you get it sorted soon Andy.

 

Merry Christmas.

[Alister_G]

That's not good Andy, sorry to hear that.

 

Hope you get it sorted it soon.

 

Al.

[muddys-blues]

Sorry to hear that Andy, I hate dealing with insurance companies, I am just sorting my Motor Traders policy out, I am sure they take money under false pretences, trouble is you never find out till the proverbial hits the fan.

 

Thomas the Tankers comes to mind.

 

Best regards

Thanks Guys for all your comments, tomorrow is another day, and in two weeks time it will be Jan 1st 2019, and I for one can't wait to get rid of 2018, it has been the worst and most frightening year of my life since the 11th Jan when I had the Heart Attack.

 

Here's to the next few days, or what's left of 2018. 

[Andrew P]

The New 47 had a nice run this evennig up at the Club on DC. No un-wanted sounds from the motors or gears so that's reassuring. Next job is for Jints to fit the Sound, numbers and some Crew, he is picking it up on Saturday all being well.

[Andrew P]

[tractionman]

And to you Andy, merry modelling.

 

All the best,

Hi.....

Yep all the best mate....

 

I had dealings with an insurance company (who you'll be familiar with but naming no names) who recently sent me an (already astronomically) elevated car insurance renewal price but when I questioned why they had me down on their renewal notice as having two cars on the drive.... when in fact I have only ever had one.....as they said because I had informed them of that fact the renewal price would now have to go up further due to the fact I only had one car, it would be they said would be cheaper if I had an extra car on the drive..... strangely I am no longer with them....!

 

There was I recall a Goon Show entitled 'Insurance The White Man's Burden'   . How true!

 

Regards always.....

You really couldn't make it, their incompetence is unbelievable.
