Thanks!

 

I wouldn't mind seeing it myself, so it's off to Smiffs tomorrow. I submitted the article so long ago (about 30 months) that I've forgotten what I wrote and who I insulted :D

Looks like you've been roped in to do the ballasting. It's a good job you're doing.

 

Do you hire yourself out for such work on other layouts? :D
