You might well be seeing others too, such as owls,and pheasants,crested grebes to mention a few. As yet we have no turkeys  :D Maybe next Xmas. You notice the sheep have no lambs  :angel: .THe smell of mnt sauce is prevelant in the vacinity.

There will soon be other wildlife popping up soon, hedgehogs, squirrels, weasels, though you might not want to be a poor rabbit!!!!

We did our time listening to TV, but that is now ex rather than X, because instead we watch the graceful, and sometimes not so graceful. executions on the dance floor. Although Kal always seems so much more interested in the costumes   :blum:

Abbiegails (Hornby Spares) 

We have started the sale today in response to the many requests. Good luck
in finding a bargain, you are unlikely to see prices like these again.

To be fair to all customers there is a limit of 10 of any one spare per
order. Multiple orders will all attract p&p at the full rate.

Merry Christmas from all at www.hornbyspares.com

I'm right royally stuffed.........stuffed.

english lamb, paxo stuffing, yorkshire puddings, mint sauce, gravy with meat juices and veg water, cheese sauce with french mustard, roast potatoes (Mrs Beetons) parsnips, cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, sprouts. Seconds.....erm thirds. Yep stuffed. If anyone says dessert.....I'll be.......near the chocolate boxes :sungum: . Only question is after a J20 rather than a wine can I manage to roll to the drinks cabinet for a baileys or an amoretto.

The tracks to the bridge and the tunnel beyond, and eventually what this is all about a loco or even a train.

After this batch I'm off to go check on Kal and see how the terraforming is proceeding. All work stops for Who? You know who!!! Dr Who.  :sungum:

Well.... I enjoyed Dr Who, but I was hoping he went out with a bang, same way he arrived. Feel a bit underwhelmed by the ending. Considering how great a Doctor Matt was, I felt he should have had more than an hour for the final episode.

Terraforming continues

A grid was added to the new PIR and cutting  :butcher: took place. The foam boards from Goathlnad to Hogsmeade are now in place, more cutting will be required, and colouring of course

The bridge and tunnel beginning to form

med_gallery_17883_3001_678112.jpgrmweb254terraforming6

 

Some buildings and trees added to give an idea of how we might work this

med_gallery_17883_3001_678112.jpgrmweb255terraforming7

 

You can see the width that the bridge will end up, the extra is left to allow modelling

med_gallery_17883_3001_75451.jpgrmweb256terraforming8

 

The elm at the back left is the big one just recently modelled

med_gallery_17883_3001_524920.jpgrmweb258terraforming10

 

roads will slope up and down to more from one board to another.

Th...th... that's all folks                                  :jester:

Hi Will

 

Yes it does, but we have four tracks running back there, so we need to hide them, and so are trying to decide on either

Ignoring the landscape that side of the bridge, we have already by the fact there is a tunnel which is not on the prototype

Or... Making the back tracks look like the river and the road, by disguising them

Or... Using a photographic back scene to hide the tracks.

 

Thank you for being observant, we like to have feed back on things we may have missed :)
