    Remember, when you are opening your box, you are no longer just opening the box, you have an ongoing de-accession incident type of situation

      Yep. The haystack is RMweb.

      Make sure the room is full of people.

      Grab a corner in each hand and pull with all your might!

      When the bag finally gives way, the said contents are instantly distributed to all and sundry.

    3. Miss Prism

      Miss Prism

      Too true, SHMD!

      The 'Mark all as read tool' is not an option?

    3. chrisf

      chrisf

      I agree! 49 pages in my case which really helps a good holiday to wear off.

  12. Miss Prism

    Interesting clues in Bachmann's new 2013 calendar, e.g. the J15, but I thought a few of the pages could have been published in a Hornby calendar...

    1. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      The Hornby calendar might be in a container from the PRC. Then again, it might not. Nobody really knows...

  13. Miss Prism

    Starry, starry night...

  14. Miss Prism

    I was using only my own eyes, M'lud...

    1. Andy Y

      Andy Y

      And very observant ones they are. ;)

  15. Miss Prism

    Has anyone worked out what Hornby's "design clever" might mean?

      It's like 'boxing clever', only without the boxing...

      Design once and then use for the next 30 years.

      Isn't that what Triang did all those years ago????

    If a PM involves more than 2 people, and I press the reply button, does the reply go to everyone?

    1. Taz

      Taz

      yes, unless one of those people has chosen to leave the conversation

    2. Miss Prism

      Miss Prism

      Thanks!

  18. Miss Prism

    Grrr - 'definitive volumes' with mistakes...

  19. Miss Prism

    The usual RMweb software 'upgrade' - it's 500% slower than before

  20. Miss Prism

    Why does RMweb have to wait for crap social media plugins like gravatar.com to load before RMweb content can load?

      err what's a plug-in?

      I click on RMweb and it loads - nothing else seems to load before it, I think.

  21. Miss Prism

    e-tickets for Scaleforum are a wonderful idea, unless you don't have a printer...

  22. Miss Prism

    What an incredible body of work King Crimson produced. Respect to Sir Fripp.

    RMweb silly quiz: what's the mpg of the GWR Steamrailmotor? (No, I don't have a clue either.)

      Miss Prism

      If it were 0.2mpg, it could get to Paddington and back on a tankful

    3. The Stationmaster

      The Stationmaster

      Ah but it would have yo faster enroute to Paddington so consumption would rise.

    4. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      But hopefully not too much if you take advantage of momentum :-)

    Grrr - blog notifications are still rubbish

    1. richbrummitt

      richbrummitt

      I think they always have been? I tried to follow blogs in the past but it seems that you had to catch and follow every entry, and page two of the blogs doesn't function properly on the 'Content I Follow' page.

    2. Miss Prism

      Miss Prism

      It would help if there was a page 2!
