  4. But what was so interesting behind YOU if TOH was more interested in videoing it rather than getting out of camera shot?🤔
  5. Are you sure you have enough fingers to safely use such a fearsome device? Just askin'...
  6. I hear that one of the police officers injured yesterday spent hours in surgery having her arm repaired. Her hand was almost severed. There is no excuse, mental health or otherwise, for this sort of attack.
  7. Welcome back to an old friend! 🤪 As it were...
  8. Today saw the successful completion of the gardening exercise that I procrastinated over yesterday. Much nicer outside today, sunny, calm and even (hush) WARM! Time for lunch...
  9. What a nice trainset! It reminded me of this... https://uk.Hornby.com/products/network-traveller-train-set-r1279m They should have an inglenook shunting puzzle in the middle of the oval too!
  10. Your Dapol 121 should be perfectly ok with a basic Hornby controller, I've just tested a Dapol Jinty on a yard of Peco track, using a 9v PP3 battery! Worked fine... I'd suggest that a Gaugemaster Combi controller would be a better long term bet for the 121 and for Dapol 0-6-0 and similar locos. If you're intending to run anything bigger, a Gaugemaster GMC100-MO single controller or a GMC-DO double controller would be suitable. If you want to economise, the Morley Vanguard double controller mighr be a better bet.
  11. You're just JEALOUS that I'm close to a working Delivery Office!!!
  12. Funny you should have said that, the postie was at my door this morning, rang the bell and didn't run away AGAIN!!!

  16. I have heard that properly delivered CPR should result in rhe breaking of several ribs, notwithstanding the age of the patient...
  17. This should cheer iD up no end https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c87z06r175no Scientists are working to make white bread healthier.... 🤪
  18. White Rabbits!  Its May...   Already...

     

  19. Explains all the skeletons at the bottom of swimming pools with an Apple Watch around their boney wrists.....
  20. Well, it was better than being executed for stealing a hankie, despite the importunate pigeons with yellow feathers on their heads...
  21. The £125 O gauge Jinty in BR livery has sold out, the private owner one is still available, as is the Southern livery Terrier. Rails has now released a variety of 14xx locos in the £145 price bracket. https://railsofsheffield.com/collections/o-gauge-bargains?system_collections=Steam%20Locomotives
  22. Thanks for the link about the restoration work on the viaduct. I first passed under it on the S&W in the early 70s, it was very much as the "before" pictures illustrated!
  23. Midnight? 🤔 Its barely 4pm! 🤪🤪🤪 Speaking of cakes, I should have had a Cinnamon Bun with my mid-afternoon cuppa, but I forgot. Oh well, it'll keep for tomorrow....
  24. Keeping a landline is due to several factors. Little or no mobile coverage at the location Inertia Age If I were younger, I'd probably drop the landline, but as I'm not fully integrated with the smartphone culture (I loathe the things, even though I have one), I'll stick with my landline, even though its more or less a tethered mobile phone...
