      The ostrich curry is excellent! Been in the banyan tree a few times. Those Japanese lagers are pretty strong in there!

      Ah yes, Japanese lager. Most acceptable...particularly with a Katsu curry.

  2. Joined the 2FS Association at Warley exhibition. Having a play with an easitrac sample pack.

  7. Dapol class 56 arrived on the doorstep this morning!!

      Dunno but you'd better sacrifice a few virgins to it to be on the safe side.

      You've been reading that DITD thread too much!

  14. My 2 year old son loves watching my Bletchley 1987 DVD. He's going to be so disappointed when I take him to Bletchley one day and he sees the crap trains we have to put up with these days.

      it gets addictive working with this thing - - - ooh that looks just like such'n'such if i do this. Two weeks later you realise you need ot look at the defence estates sales list cos you need a hangaer to hold the model of "York" you've designed. Well done chap.

  19. Has man flu. Prescribed remedy: at least one hour twice daily at the modelling bench. Plenty of cups of tea to be made by senior management. Browsing on rmweb as required.

  20. Happy new year RMweb!! Have the most amazing 2014!!

  21. Dapol MK3 blue grey HST buffet arrived today! Finally I have a full western region HST set!

  22. I've managed to download Templot onto my iMac! happy days!!

  23. My 18 month old son has demanded that the modern traction archive "Bletchley Hotspot" DVD be played instead of "In the night garden". I had to give in!

  24. Beer festival today!
