Just bought the Hornby Pendennis castle in OO for 75 pounds here in Belgium... with the austerity 2-8-0 from Bachmann I purchased earlier this week from gaugemaster, I'm quite thrilled by the idea of them riding on my club's layout...

Like in august in the Ardennes when I just had to swallow back my words when, just after I said "That's a nice sky backdrop there", it really started to pour like if they opened all the taps up there : a H.U.G.E. rain wall !!!

First exhibition day is over. Seen lots of people there, and also quite some fine layouts. There's this French O scale layout in front of us with a wonderfull depot and on the other side a fine crossing with the signal tower (Saxby, wooden) and also a fine masonery bridge over a river... That one is really worth a visit. I'll post pictures tomorrow night.

Ah... Sorry to say that, Horsetan, but I fear it does not work for that... The main result of my "cure" is to induce a good "sweat". You drink it before going to bed and you sweat the cold out of your system in a few days... Also another effect is that it helps you sleep (imagine trying to sleep when sneezing like crasy...)
