    had a very nice day on the Gloucestershire and Warwickshire Railway.

  2. Kev_Lewis

    was surprised to learn that you can actually buy a shire horse for less that a JLTRT diesel kit at the moment.

      Yes. A friend of mine who has her own show ponies couldn't believe the horrors in that one.

      I hope it comes with 12 months warranty for that price.

      You'll be lucky.

    is surprised by the number of Connoisseur Nellie's that are appearing on eBay at the moment.

      Can't just be coincidence. Mind you, I hear a rumour there'll be a new batch of Connoisseur Y6 tram kits in a few months' time....and once they're gone, they're gone!

      I'm wondering if it's people who've given up on O gauge.

    Cricket season started today in a blaze of rain and hail. However we still managed to win!

      yorkshire leagues started two weeks ago - today was only minor hail and rain and wind and sun.....

    Isn't having any luck with auctions lately.

      Think of the money you've saved.

      Selling or buying ?

    3. Kev_Lewis

      Kev_Lewis

      Well, yes I have saved money. But I'd have more kits to build if there weren't so many people out there with deeper pockets that me!

  6. Kev_Lewis

    Yesterday's session of "gardening for masochists" has left my hands in an interesting state. Blinkin' brambles!

  7. Kev_Lewis

    Is it just me who headbangs to the Wayne's World Sonos advert?

      GWR Autocoach or MK1 BSK?

    3. 69843

      69843

      GWR Autocoach methinks

    4. Kev_Lewis

      Kev_Lewis

      That's what I was leaning towards. Better tidy the workbench a bit first!

  10. Kev_Lewis

    rather strangely, quite fancies the idea of building a Black 5 sometime in the future.

    wishes eBay would choose a theme and stick with it. The site seems to be different every time I log in!

      It just keeps crashing for me and logging me out? Strange!

      S,a ecould be said for YouTube!

      I agree. And each country's eBay looks a little different too. (cf. ebay.com and ebay.de) Kinda weird.

      You should see their tax-efficient arrangements as well.... :-O

  21. Kev_Lewis
