Bungus the Fogeyman

Just for you Steve! Disgusting of Market Harborough

Yes please Clive for your usual doormanly duties.....layout-wise we're full at the moment if everybody can come! Weve also had an offer of a layout for 2020 too............ Disgusting of Market Harborough

Bumpity bump. As soon as we have that Christmas thingy done and dusted, our chief liason officer will be thundering into action in his usual quiet efficient manner to finalise some of the layouts we have provisionally booked for the 2019 extravaganza. One trader I can already confirm is Book Law, that purveyor of quality railway literature. ........ More to follow over the coming weeks. Disgusting of Market Harborough

I wouldn't touch the headshunt length. Those constraints John refers to will make the operation more rather than less interesting and challenging. ... Disgusting of Market Harborough

In order to keep bumping this show up, i thought I'd better add this picture of Weslo Steels for peoples delectation. is that ok Andy? Disgusting of Market Harborough

Certainly my favourite operating team. After the breakdown, they both came to apologise for having to walk through our bit at the back. And to further soften the blow they gave me 2 bottles of Leffe! I've a new-found liking for the Belgians now. Hope you got home ok chaps. Disgusting of Market Harborough

Good thing we didnt run Friday Bridge to a prototype timetable....... you might have seen the odd 16t mineral being shuffled about on Saturday morning and that would have been your lot! A great weekend anyway, a big well done to the Warley MRC chaps. Tinged with slight sadness inasmuch that 2 of the old stalwarts, Paul Jones and John Seward, are taking a step back from the front line of exhibition organisation from next year. I'm sure I wont be the only one to thank them for their sterling work over the years, and I'm sure most of Johns grey hairs are down to me! Well done chaps! Disgusting of Market Harborough

I taught him all I know!......... Disgusting of Market Harborough

Bloody hell Clive! I'm going for me lunch when all this crush show up Disgusting of Market Harborough

See you in the naughty corner Steve. Looking forward to it, though Cath isnt so keen....... Disgusting of Market Harborough

How about an Airfix/Dapol dockside crane or 2. Possibly with a big crate or something hanging off the jib. Just a thought mate! Will we see this one at Shenfield too? Disgusting of Market Harborough

How about a couple of cranes Steve? Disgusting of Market Harborough

Have a shufty at the thread for Trevanna Dries........ Disgusting of Market Harborough

Another goodie in the making Steve! Also obeys Walbys Axiom so you're on a winner in my book! Looking forward to seeing how this progresses...... Disgusting of Market Harborough

Mike, I hope you'll be applying Walbys Axion to this 'plank' ...... Disgusting of Market Harborough

Mike Whitchurch building a plank!!! Hes never built any thing under 10 foot in his life! Disgusting of Market Harborough

If Clive comes dressed as he says Andy, I'll be needing another operator. I'll pencil you in!! Disgusting of Market Harborough

Good to see you and Tim learned a bit from me Stu.....Steve and that young lad were on Portwey for hours!!! Lot of great comments about a smashing layout...Forgot to ask yesterday about the intended new project.......any further thoughts? Disgusting of Market Harborough

Don't go soft on him Andy! Tell him to get his c*** out of the custard and get Redhill built in time for next year!!! Disgusting of Market Harborough

Have a look on the flickr site of Jodel Aviator, or John Evans as his mum knew him as! He took loads of pics of the area coming from Northampton as he did Disgusting of Market Harborough

Will still be following with interest Disgusting of Market Harborough

Kev Dickerson at Coastal DCC has a very realistic soundchip of an 04 done at Mangapps Farm. Not sure whether it has a bell on it though! hth Disgusting of Market Harborough

I'll let you have the credit for that one Phil- its your train set! Disgusting of Market Harborough

Hes worse than me, Dave!! Disgusting of Market Harborough

Having seen the list of combatants, I think Dave has excelled himself this year! Canons Lane is all hot to trot- Cath just needs a refresher course on all the points and switches and we're good to go! Disgusting of Market Harborough
