Red wine and sloe gin

Me neither .... but reassuringly have arrived home.

Well it wasn't on writing up a loco thread for this Caley loco your building as I cant find it yet

A decent speaker and a decent chip really.

With steam, the sounds are too organic to reproduce convincingly. Fortunately, I’ve listened to Peter Handford recordings all my life so I can just imagine the sound. :-)

Nah !! you just need the right decoder and speaker. Steam sound gets better and better. :-)

Superb project, Rosspop! That gland needs to be repacked, though.

It's a Scandinavian conspiracy. If you're brought up with Lego, Ikea instructions are easy.

Are you updating the Meaning of Liff?

The Manics

Yep, according to the good old Wikipedia entry for the song, "The song's theme is taken from the Spanish Civil War, and the idealism of Welsh volunteers who joined the left-wing International Brigades fighting for the Spanish Republic against Francisco Franco's military rebels. The song takes its name from a Republican poster of the time, displaying a photograph of a young child killed by the Nationalists under a sky of bombers with the stark warning "If you tolerate this, you...

I've walked Las Ramblas but not with real intent

It might smell a bit.

Oi!

Hope it was genuine turmeric. Informed sources tell me there are substitutes using dyes.

Well that's what CNN said anyway...

He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy

Could it have been Daytona? Orlando?

Come on in Doctor.

Permission denied.

Is this a direct translation from Japanese?

I have enjoyed good beer in an oxymoron - The Honest Lawyer in Scunthorpe

I've built both OO models (one WAS my first 4mm loco kit, so it worked for me) and the 7mm 02. All seemed pretty good to me. Is it the very concept of a kit you have a problem with?

Yeah. Dyed in the wool RTR, me...

LOL

Ah Sainsbury's wellies, one of the best smokes around at the moment. Beats Lidel and Aldi quite easily. However, Waitrose usually works best.....man.

I had no idea that Sainsbury's were flogging wellies these days. Can you get Nectar points for those?

"Dog walking would be fun though."

Until you have to use a plastic bag! ;o)

Could you tolerate the NHS? If so have a look into the 'Porter/Estates' side of the firm. Doesn't involve a lot of dog walking as far as I remember.

I also found that there can be quite a lot of PT driving for thew Council/Social Services/ health Service. Our local pahrmacist ahs PT drivers to do prescription delivereies. Those sort of jobs just don't seem to appear on job sites.

Doing something similar as it happens. Like I say round's good but a few more hours would do. Of course, if people sent me their models to weather...

Going for a MRI scan soon they are looking for my brain and a spine no chance.

Hope all turns out well.

Thanks. Do you think you have a touch of survivor guilt?

Plastic axles are the future ;-)

I'll stick with garlic bread, thanks... ;-)

I often dream of trains when I'm alone

I ride on them into another zone

I dream of them constantly

Heading for paradise

Or Basingstoke

Or Reading

I often dream of trains when I'm awake

They ride along beside a frozen lake

And there in the buffet car

I wait for eternity

Or Basingstoke

Or Reading

I often dream of trains till it gets light

The summer turns to winter overnight

The leaves fall so suddenly

The sun se...

Whats yer thoughts on Friday nights numbers Dave?

9,11,24,29,32,48.

10 should be better and apparently a free upgrade will be in place for users of legit copies of 7, 8 and 8.1. (I hate it too!).

I must be the only one that doesn't mind it!

..I don't like change

Nip up to the full size layout see if that fresh air helps?

All the sodding jobs needing done outside are called off..yippee

perfect modelling weather

try four years of it bud

:-(

Are your ankles ok?

Baaaaa

you've been in Asda too..worse than the rush upstairs for bargains at EM north!

Is that what they call self-motivation?

... or just "end of year 2015 syndrome"?

Well this one came into works before the Hornby Clan did... Think it's been here long enough! Anyway, that's the lining done at last!

Hit the North.

Related to Bill the Cat? Oop ack

You're clearly not feeding him/her enough food. That's what all cats say, of course!

You been having an all day session again Dave

Been sniffing his de liveries

Smash.

Leaking roof since last weekend, leaking in two spots now!!! Arr...

You have my sympathies. I have just seen the pictures from Keswick on the news. Just had a sneaky look on the raw computer forecast and the rain does stop soon after midnight, if that is any help.

Police have declared a major incident. Do I have the alcoholic beverage that I have before work phone?

I still recall seeing Michael Barratt, doing a piece, leaning out the second-man's window of a 33!

Probably another of Ronnie Hazlehurst's theme tunes.

Me....the theme from Get Carter!

Hahahaha

.......lol.

If it was a musician you could watch them de-composing LOL

Got me coat but don't wear hats....

They are free or same as land lines according to this on O2: http://www.o2.co.uk/help/everything-else/special-numbers

just spent 45 minutes on hold to be told the number they had supplied me with was the wrong number. ~not amused~

Ah...

Stoke me a clipper, I'll be back for Christmas

smeg

Shmeee Heeeed

Meanwhile, as the proceeds from the Hattons Garden Tunnelling Project are distributed...

I've seen that film 'Bank Job', you know... ;-)
