      Hi Steve,

      Thanks - takes a little while to grow and much waxing but I'm working on it.

      I've been looking into some history, my family have links with the RAF. My great grandfather on my mother's side who's still alive at age 90 was in the RAF between 1946-48 he did Radar and later RAF police I believe, he has some brilliant stories and photographs he taken from the period.

  4. Dolly's Tea Room in Falmouth is very good... I'm finding myself living in the 1940s at the moment.

  5. Should I get up early to stand outside and look at the sun. Of course I will because it will be fascinating.

      Not as fascinating as a total eclipse, though.

  15. Unsure which track to use for my new project

      to have correct size sleepers, the correct distance between them and BR 3 bolt chairs with wooden keys. Around 13 points and a number of catch points will be needed on the visual section alone.

      I would suggest looking at either EM gauge (not everything needs re-wheeled) or OO-sf which allows you to use rtr locos/stock. It might be worth having a look at the 'handbuilt track and Templot' section of the forum.
