Bungus the Fogeyman

Any further developments on this Mark? Like the look of it and the subj matter, but think you may have been a bit lavish with the number of points!🤣 Disgusting of Market Harborough

Your Sheepness All things being equal, Cath and myself are hoping to venture down from the badlands of the Midlands to this shenanigans next Sunday. We want to bring Ellie with us (who is 25% border collie and 75% twonk) and Cath is fretting about whether she'll be allowed in the hall......we promise she will behave and not nip Chris H on the ankle when he's not looking.............. Disgusting of Market Harborough

Some very flattering photos there chaps, thank you very much! I've added a couple of my own from the routs and revels at Cotgrave at the weekend. It was good to meet you Dave and partake of a very pleasant chinwag........ Disgusting of Market Harborough

Don't panic Andy, Victoria came out of it unscathed! Disgusting of Market Harborough

Thought it was time to re-awaken this load of old jollop as Victoria appeared last week at Nailsea and will be knocking them dead at York over the weekend....... Has anything more been done with it? Not really........the waste ground has had a bit of 'gravettisation' but thats about it at the moment, although there is an EFE Class 70 waiting in the wings........... Disgusting of Market Harborough

Back in the Leicestershire hinterlands after a thunderingly good weekend at Nailsea with the boss lady. A jolly fine show, good to see some of the chaps and good to meet Captain K and Wiggo, 2 absolute gentlemen unlike some of the other rabble............also chuffed that His Sheepness got 'best layout in show'- one up for the small layout builders (although as you can see from Chris' pics, I have some way to go before I can aspire to such greatness!)..... For those that didn't get there, well there's always next year! Disgusting of Market Harborough

Well if he did he didn't have a look at Top Yard, unless he did when Clive was playing on it! Miserable get! A great weekend, well done to all involved in the organising. Despite the parking tribulations, all went relatively smoothly. Top Yard is starting to grow on me, and seemed to appeal to a few people, especially the fellah who described the scenery as 'Gravettesque'! I will take that as a complement, though Gordon and Maggie may beg to differ! So onwards and upwards then! Well done everybody, you've all done very well! Disgusting of Market Harborough

Well Mike, you only have to ask!............I'm sure we could fit you in. Disgusting of Harket Marborough

Its very quiet on here....Are we to expect a dramatic announcement, a la some of the new producers, shortly? Disgusting of Market Harborough

Count me in that happy band too! All couplings have their plus and minus points, its simple a question of personal perference (apart from the apocryphal 2mm finescale bod who tried 3 links, who basically is just certifiable!)... They certainly do Stu, I've got a couple. The mark I and the mark II versions. And if you're worrying about having too much wagonry with you at Ally Pally worry no longer....we can find a home for it!! Disgusting of Marketr Harborough

You've obviously seen my trackbuilding Les!. As Paul Wade once said 'Dave models in all the popular 4mm gauges, OO, P4 and EM, usually all on the same layout!' Disgusting of Market Harborough

Bit concerned to see on UK model shops listings that there is a OO9 layout called Bleat at Nailsea. Is there something you need to tell us sheepmeister? 🤣 Disgusting of Market Harborough PS I also see that Lydbroook Dean will be there too according to the blurb........

Had the very great pleasure of finally seeing this today (no Phots sadly as I didn't really get the time) and the highest complements I can give it is that, a) its up to Stus very high standards and b) its better than the layout that sort of inspired it.. Sound work my friend! Disgusting of Market Harborough

isn't that a chinese tool for tightening up IKEA purchases.......................... I'll get me coat Disgusting of Market Harborough

Shocked and saddened to hear this news, having attended a few Fareham shows with my train sets and with Cath doing the work of Book Law! A very affable sort of chap who was happy to cover for me when I needed a break. He even looked like he was enjoying it on odd occasions! Our (Cath and Myself) deepest sympathies go out to his family and those at Fareham MRC. Saddened of Market Harborough
