      Bought Power of the Royal Scots a few weeks back, read it, enjoyed it and then filed it with all my other Power books right beside the copy I'd already had for years!

  12. Is wondering how the VW garage did the full brake fluid change a month ago when the bleed nipples on the rear are rusted solid????? I feel a little email is due tomorrow.

      60159

      What are things coming to - in my day brake fluid was never changed but an oil change was just clean up the sump plug to make it look like it had been off!

  13. It ruins a detailing project when you accidentally damage the loco. Relatively minor, but I can’t help but notice it. So frustrating

  15. Withdrawn: Sodor Railways No2 Edward and No4 Henry 4-6-0 have been withdrawn from TTTE. No1 Thomas is being exported from Sodor for overseas use. Replaced by new locomotives Nia and Rebecca. Should we set up a preservation group ? https://www.portsmouth.co.uk/whats-on/tv/thomas-the-tank-engine-has-been-given-a-huge-multicultural-makeover-1-8623346

      I have commented elsewhere that Mattel have lost the plot. On the one hand I hope it is catastrophic for them but on the other they will deny a simple, magic and enthralling pleasure to many wide eyed and innocent youngsters.

      Yes, Johnny Dumfries was just saying to me the other day ne was looking for a top class "spark" but I gave him your name anyway! On a more serious note. I was well impressed by what The Friends of Wemyss Bay station have achieved there and I had the most excellent bacon and egg roll across the road in McCaskies

      Hardly ever seen good or even helpful feedback on Tripe Advisor. A few genuine complaints apart, it's for the deluded and habitually malcontent.

  19. Has the nasty man gone away yet ?

    1. 60159

      60159

      What I'm struggling with is there are people out there who actually like him. He's not here but sadly he's not gone away!

      60159

      I too await the centre car but what's the betting when it becomes available it will only be as part of a three-car set.
