Andrew P Posted March 21, 2018 Author Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) I can just see you dashing about trying to get everything in when the rain starts. Hahah This is Swadlincote, South Derbyshire, NOT Lincolnshire mate, hahah. The dog has already started. Should be there Friday next week. I'll be looking out for you then. hahaha Edited March 21, 2018 by Andrew P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Bogie Posted March 22, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 22, 2018 I'll be looking out for you then. hahaha Some bad news and some good news. The dog emerged from her hole earlier this evening with what looks like a rather well chewed Class 47 (in blue I might add). When I ventured into the hole and popped my head up the other side a gentlemen with a Chinese accent was very agitated. When I mentioned the name "Andy Peters", he replied "The English fellow with all of the layouts." Sorry couldn't resist. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donington Road Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Wife to Husband. You tell her it's for her potting plants, you build it with a transparent roof and then when all the plants mysteriously die you reclaim it as a failed project.

Two fellows sitting by the road see a lorry full of rolled turf go by. One says to the other "You know, one day I'll be rich enough to send my grass away to be cut". I thank you.

KNP Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Two fellows sitting by the road see a lorry full of rolled turf go by. One says to the other "You know, one day I'll be rich enough to send my grass away to be cut". I thank you. We had a new lawn laid a few years ago and two chaps dually arrived to lay the turf in the back garden. Whilst one started the manager came in to discuss and every now and then he leaned out the dining room window and shouted 'green side up - Jim' Being inquisitive I asked was that some technical process but he said no not really. Just that his colleague was new to the job and wasn't sure how to lay it as they had left the instructions at home.........!!!! So.....I thank you!

Andrew P Posted March 28, 2018 Author Share Posted March 28, 2018 Just a note for those that may not have seem the announcement on the Hintock St Loe thread. We have lost a great modeller and digital friend to me, John Flann. John and I conversed via e-mail at least once, sometimes 4 or 5 times a week, over the last 3 years or so. He gave me valuable advice on many issues, and when I was planning Pencarne, he kept saying, TO MUCH TRACK, TAKE OUT ANOTHER SIDING, and he was right, he really was the master of LESS IS MORE and as a digital friend, and commentator on here and my other threads he will be sadly missed.
