  1. 30 cows in a field, 28 chickens, how many didn't?

  2. Thank you very much for taking the time to providing such lengthy and detailed posts, the assembly of these carriages is highly interesting and unique, but just a small question. How hard, and where do you get the rest of the parts needed to complete the kit (under frame and roof fittings) and also, how much extra would they cost on top of the basic kit? Thanks in advance. Nelson

      Sadly Virgin have stopped their Heathrow to Narita flights - they used to be pretty cheap. Personally, I'd try and fly into Haneda if you can - if into for some monorail milage!

      31 hours! Just like the wait when I try to open my Orange email.

  4. Thank you guys for your comments, I'm sure with practise you'll easily achieve the same results Rhys, Glover from the book I have "BCDR Irish railway pictorial" it states "for a time these PW wagons were painted in an attractive but short lived, two tone colour scheme that was introduced at queens quay in 1950" the wagon is in NCC grey and the top plank bauxite red. Hope that helps?
  5. Thank you very much everyone for your comments ^^ I appreciate them. Here's the completed wagon, it should have more lettering but my transfer sheet is knackered so I must get round to buying a new one haha. Seen here in the UTA short lived PW livery. Thanks Nelson
  6. Hello everyone, The newest wagon out of the works is this BCDR open wagon which will be done in UTA PW colours. Nelson

  9. That tender looks amazing, well done! What's the product code for the red lining? I had a look on Fox's website but couldn't find anything.
  10. Hello! All my stuff is painted with humbrol enamels, and the wood is painted using 3 different colours mixed and dry brushed followed with a brown/grey wash.
  11. Hello everyone! I've finished the 2 wagons, one NCC and the other LMS, I had fun weathering the former and I also finished this airfix king tiger, some modification but overall a lovely kit to build (apart from the tracks) Thanks, Nelson
  12. Not in Northern Ireland as far as I know....
  13. The model is coming along very nicely, I'm learning loads of learning new things, thank you!
  14. I forgot to post pics of what my PG class currently looks like so here it is as it stands. Still a bit more to do, cab number, cab details and some tidy up, apologize for the poor picture quality, must be due to the low light. Nelson
  15. Hello everyone!!!!!!! Blimey! After 10 weeks of no modelling and a ton of exams, I'm now free.....until August but shhhhhh, we shan't worry about that now last exam was today and 6 hours after It I finished these 2 wagons, they are ratio LMS coal wagons, 2 wagons came with the box and I built them at the same time. It's my first ratio wagon kit surprisingly enough and they are excellent, I mean wow, so good to put together, no fuss what so ever so well done to ratio! I might get some more haha. It's great to be modelling again, I have some projects in mind for the holidays but it's mainly whatever I pick up next, I will build Nelson. Edit: forgot to mention they need painting hahaha, I might do 1 in LMS NCC colours and the other as LNWR

  20. There are n sweets in a bag. Six of the sweets are orange. The rest of the sweets are yellow. Hannah takes a random sweet from the bag. She eats the sweet. Hannah then takes at random another sweet from the bag. She eats the sweet. The probability that Hannah eats two orange sweets is 1/3. Show that n

      Answer: it takes one man 3 hours to dig the hole...with a JCB. Can you tell I hated maths? My son's good but couldn't do the sweets question.
