There's a bloke near us who uses one of those insanely bright headlamp things, and it's incredibly dazzling.

I don't see how it can be stopped or mitigated unless someone tells the cyclist concerned about the effect of their flashing light, whether that's the unfortunate person affected by it, or a police officer (who might also have been adversely affected by it)...

Being a former cyclist, I think the modern cyclist is his own worst enemy, red lights, undertaking, cutting in between traffic etc.etc. I got my eyes opened when I was commuting through Glasgow city a few years ago, absolute idiots some of them.

Not in a Rush then!

Still after RR mk1s?

Best of luck and may the amount of work stay high for a long time!

Thanks CK!

Long term 'big picture' planning? NOT! LOL

Ah, Madagascar (2)...

Mirrors so many conversations at my current workplace...!

Go on you know it makes sense.....

If you think there's even a remote chance of you wanting one do it now! No point kicking yourself when they're all gone! (like I did with the blue 33 - dammit!)

I was thinking one of each for a redundancy treat

Oh horlicks...

Are you sure you don't have a colleague who's called 'Joanne' out of hours?

A lady of the night?

These chaps really know how to create sharp, accurate models at good prices, don't they; shame they don't 'do' railway stuff...!!

I'd imagine that a number of Tamiya's 1:48 military vehicle kits might have been repurposed as On30 "critters".

Also, I believe that some of the Mig Jiminez stuff has a rather good reputation (deservedly so, too) ... .

While I think of it, some US forum sites (FreeRails, RR Line - On30 Line) include a lot of repurposed military kits - both 1:48 and 1:35 (even if not always used to represent stuff in the same scale as the kits).

I wouldn't be surprised to see 2 Unimodels "Gaz AAA" (or similar) kits finding their way into an On30 Wismar railbus - or a Tamiya bulldozer being turned into a "shopbuilt" loco.

My Jeep was the same 125k 16 years old

That's nothing. My old BMW went 28 years without failing the MoT. It was only this year's one where it came a cropper, so I sold it to a restoration workshop in Rotherhithe....

Three years ago I was given (well you wouldn't buy one would you!) a Nissan Primera with 280k on the clock. Now up to 401k and still refuses to die!

As he says ^-^

Sorry to hear this. Fingers crossed on this end, too!

Sorry to hear that David; good luck with whatever's next!

Thanks folks; it's gone 4pm now so probably be tomorrow #lifeonhold

9am - the waiting resumes...!

Any news David?

Thanks Ivan....

Blame Blackadder...!!

....and what have I got to show for it? Nothing: a butler's uniform and a slightly effeminate hairdo.

Ever since Rick Wright passed on PF will never be the same and that is my perception of what Gilmour feels.Health issues rumoured? - he has not done anything since the excellent On an Island in 2007 apart from a cameo on an Orb project - then again you should never say never.

I only met Dave once. At Abbey Road

Thinks that the whole of this seasons episodes have been so so poor, Really not getting capaldi as the doctor either. Still got so penbits sprung bogies to make instead on a Saturday evening...

spoiler, I've not seen it yet

Dark of the moon today, can have a similar effect on some people.

Black!

Hemorhoids! Darkens the personality!

...and you're feeling good?

As opposed to Mood Indigo.

Thanks chaps; hugely appreciate the thoughts. Trusting and praying something better comes up now... :-)

Sorry to hear - been there done that - but at least the jobs market's a little easier than a couple of years back

sausage & chips for lunch for me, but then I was on sarnies all weekend

one more for me ....

Until??

sleep is over rated and get more done without it.......

stop it! more bits arrived in the post for my attention today and I have only just got the black on one side of a GWR coach ....

Getting out early in a month, glad to say!

Lucky ............

And I know it!
