    Just an insufferable feeling of smugness, superiority and privilege. steve
  2. Allegedly, when asked what he and Ernie Wise would be if they weren’t comedians, Eric Morecombe replied instantly “Mike & Bernie Winters.” steve

    Can’t see anyone wanting to steal him though. steve
  4. Reminds me of the old screensaver Johnny Castaway that kept me amused wondering what would appear next when I worked on an IT helpdesk. steve
  5. You wouldn’t listen when I told you it wouldn’t fit… steve
  6. Thanks and with this. Had it for years, don’t even know if it’s still available, sorry. steve
  7. The Hornby Sentinel 0-6-0 as been anonymised and shabbified for service on the layout. First image is in OOB condition. the other two now. steve
  8. Anyone recognise the railway location from Vera last night? 4 tracks but most of them rusty and 2 were just sidings. 143 action for the ‘service’! steve
  9. Why does the pop-up still reference the December issue, when the February 2024 issue is already in the shops? steve
  10. Until I read though this thread I’d never heard of this chap Francis and had to look him up. If he’s genuinely doing something positive for the hobby and not perpetuating the old stereotype, then fair dos. Any means of attracting people into the hobby is fine by me. steve
  11. Until it appeared here, I had never heard of such a (conspiracy) theory about the Titanic. steve
  12. Put simply, Rule 1 John. steve
  13. Given the earlier comments, what’s baby oil made from??? steve
  14. With that approach, there must be job opportunity for you at The Sun. 😆 steve
  15. Hope it all goes well! steve (MM&D MRC Country member)
  16. Spring is just around the corner… steve
  17. And to you too Steve. Maybe we’ll bump into one another at a show sometime! 😀 steve
  18. From my memory, basketball boots came from Woolworths, unboxed. Standard ‘leisure’ footwear for me from 1960s onwards for years. Still have a pair. Trainers, in a similar role, didn’t appear until into the 1970s. steve
  19. I gave my new Heljan 10800 a run on the layout this afternoon with a few items of similar period stock. It gave me the idea that I could run the layout in a third period, mid 1950s, with other suitable wagons, plus a couple of Green 20s. Would need to temporarily disguise the portacabins but it could work. Will mull this one over… steve
  20. Clever Santa. Now I need an excuse for running it… steve
