HALT! IN THE NAME OF OOR WULLIE!

Isn't the new, piratised Royal Mail wonderful? Sent an item 1st Recorded and now the system doesn't recognise the barcode IT created.

If someone can assist, I need a BR1b tender body for a loco drive Hornby Britannia. Can provide a BR- in return if needed, albeit painted in 'economy green'.

Spectacularly good vegetable curry I've rattled up. A meal fit for Horsetan!

Well, since the gable end's all safely rendered up now, I'm just sitting here waiting for the next kick in the b@lls...

...is perplexed as to why his brand new wellies from Sainsbury's left in the porch appear to smell of cannabis...

That's me tellt; took my soup out the freezer yesterday morning. Ate it today at 2. On its way back out right now! That's one hell of a quick turnaround.

Voyagers. Absolutely the worst long-distance rail travel experience in these islands!

Well, considering how doomed up I felt on Friday, that was a much better weekend than it looked like then. Got the front and back gardens sorted out, a bit of cooking and started tarting up three Oxford 7-plankers for a wee NCB layout project I'm starting to brew up!Cheers, Mallard, you were right!

Rangers must be spinning in their grave at that result. ;-)

All day you set yourself up for modelling in the evening.

Creating a Pickersgill 300 from relatively unpromising material, but it's immensely satisfying! ??

Just finished The Plug Dropper.

Never forget; your brain is a bubble of water. A blank sheet...for a top-up...

Asked my nephew what he wanted for his birthday.

Four whole days of modelling couldn't-be-@rsed-ness. This weather needs to change. And fast if I'm ever goingbto feel like doing any again!

I was a hit man for Mary Whitehouse...

The first Jan 6th that trains will run along the Gala Valley in 47 years. :-)

That breakfast was so good it was fit for Jehovah himself!

Oh dear. 'Red' rainfall warning for Cumbria until noon tomorrow and it's been hoying down since 7PM yesterday. This is not good...

...They shuffle with a bovine grace and glide in syncopation...

Fantastic weekend visiting family and then friends, back in my homeland, exploring the old hinterlands of 65B, attending S4 group meet and ScRSG.Top notch couple of days 'back home'. ??

Well guys I'm going to spend a couple of hours sorting out link couplings for wagons. If you don't hear from me by 8 please contact the North Cumbria Mental Health Crisis Team... ??
