RMweb Premium great northern Posted March 27, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 27, 2015 Apologies but this is a nothing has happened (yes, still....) alert. But, this does not mean to say that no work has taken place! I am ashamed to say that a RMWeb mate has made me very embarrassed and yet very pleased, by discovering a way to get me to start working on the layout. When I return from a short overseas trip all will be revealed (about ten days time so don't bother getting excited). All I can say is, dear reader, what you will see will amaze you. No clues, you will have to suffer. Quackers. P.S. I think I might file down/flaten off those handrail knobs on the roof as seen in post#314 as they look too much like HR Knobs Eleven days have passed. We are still waiting to be amazed.......

RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted March 29, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) Yup, however I will try the Stubb's method as I am rather partial to Cornflakes. Quackers. I would like to point out, in my most officious tones, that it can sometimes be possible, with the wind behind one, to utilise certain cardboard packaging from Tesco pork & apple sausages (this statement is based on a theoretical observation only, so far official Kernow scientists haven't dared the experiment). Edit - it's cardboard, not carboard. Whoever heard of 'carboard'. The very thought... Edited March 29, 2015 by Captain Kernow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
