    Is there a clause in all of Arnie's movie contracts that says he has to say "I'll be back" at least once per film?

      If not, there should be.

      It's only to let the film company know when he's goin to pick up his pay cheque!

    Just broken the 2000 word barrier in an essay for the first time. Utterly exhausted

    1. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      The last time I wrote 2000 words for an essay, it only dawned on me later that I had managed to expend that many words and yet say nothing at all....

      Often, the hardest bit isn't reaching that number of words - it's keeping within it.

    Debating the feasibility of a K3 to K2 conversion with a B17 boiler...

    1. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      ....or possibly a K4?

    2. Frappington Jct

      Frappington Jct

      But a K4 doesn't fit my layout...

       

      But does share a footplate with the K3

    Note to Hornby: Loco drive should no longer be a 'special feature' of a model

    1. Spitfire2865

      Spitfire2865

      A special feature should be an engine driven by the cylinders! Would be an interesting mechanism.

      Yes great. I was in real danger of having to do some modelling by combining Bacchy chassis with Lima body :)

    On Wednesday I agreed to join an orchestra which I was in a couple of years ago and is being reformed. Fine. Easy. Today I find out we've been entered into National Festival. Joy...

    If you were to put water tanks on the body of an A4, where would you put them?

    1. 11B

      11B

      A well tank between the frames maybe?

    2. martin_wynne

      martin_wynne

      You could fix them using those two holes down the side.

    3. Frappington Jct

      Frappington Jct

      RE 11B, I had that idea too as it'd mean the streamlining could be left 'as is'

    Says a lot about my day that the most exciting thing that happened was getting a new duvet cover and matching pillow case

      So this duvet cover and matching pillow case made your day because it was a matching duvet cover and pillow case whereas before you didn't have a matching duvet cover and pillow case but you do now have a duvet cover and matching pillow case :D

    The website I need to go on to get my homework off has just decided that it's going to break and that to click on anything you need to click about 5cm above it. The login bar is at the very top of the page, so you can't. :(

    Another faulty update uninstalled. My computer may be hacked but at least the internet works again!

  23. Frappington Jct

    One annoying thing about having a C1 on order - the amount of plans that stack up whilst I have no funds for them!

  24. Frappington Jct

    What to do... I've got one project on the go needing cash, one waiting to start - and needing lots of cash, AND I really want a C1 - nut that would take up montths of spending :(
