    Many thanks, Tim

    Wilton has developed a rather odd habit of the speedo cable fouling - the eccentric fouls the speedo cable and locks the drive. Is the best option to bend the eccentric* because the corresponding anchor point on the body does not respond well to bending. Tim *Are the bits on the crankpin in the following order: 1. Wheel 2. Spacer 3. Eccentric 4. Locking bolt

      If you've got rid of the caravan at the car boot sale, I could believe it.

      I'm going to have a belly full of Stella, set fire to the patio in an attempt to cook sausages, swear loudly in front of children then have a fight with the neighbours whilst getting sunburnt.

      Sorry, I thought you said you liked being miss quoted, must have read it wrong.....

      Or do you sometimes wish you'd said what you'd been misquoted as saying?

    Managed 58mpg in the Beetle on my way to the office, isn't that really interesting?

      Could the vision issue be more height related?

    I just found someone selling liquid latex in 500ml containers on Ebay for £6.99 (post free) which is a bargain compared with Copydex The use of latex glue for static grass becomes viable at this cost and having wasted £££'s using Greenscenes' Scenic Cement aka matt medium, the use of liquid latex is essential.

      Immanuel Kant was a real p*ssant,

      And was very rarely stable...

    Today - for the first time in many years, I feel ashamed and very angry.

Introduced on the SR by Bulleid, the Tavern car sets were the precursor to the ubiquitous BR Mk1 catering sets. These coaches are Comet sides on Bachmann donor vehicles built by Chris White of SR Models. They are a good match for Bachmann revised BR (S) green and I have swapped the outer bogies for those with normal couplings. Tim

    The doc has confirmed that I have sunstroke - how? My first thought was trenchfoot.

      On Monday, I drove to Devon without a hat. Not a good move for a slaphead in a ragtop.

      And there was me thinking you had that Kangol hat for a reason, even I put sun factor everyday.

      The hat was removed from the car in order to 'keep it tidy'

    Sellers with multiple accounts - what's all that about and what is to stop shill bidding? I cannot help but feel that anyone with multiple accounts is taking advantage, no matter how many excuses are provided. I sell all sorts on the one account, the only glitch was to change my identity due to a stalker who was a non paying bidder otherwise my Ebay account is open for all to see. I wonder if EBay offer a facility to check whether a seller has multiple personalities? Tim

    Tatty buildings A clutch of typical Southern buildings that really need being bedded-in and a lot more detail, the inspiration came from Verwood (S&DJR) on the downside. I have some nice swan-neck lamps from Dart Castings and a few plants would not come amiss. Tim

    How did you resolve the incompatibility with the slide bars and crank throw? Tim

    Why does a certain entry in my blog have so many views? It's not an unusual image, we all have them.

      I presume the unusual image is the one I thought about reporting for the accompanying comment ;-)

      Rich, you would have reported it if it was Tim's! :-D

      Debs.

      You should apply an unguent; that looks terribly sore! :-)
