They say confession is good for the soul....!

many a true word spoken in jest!

Charters usually have to have two up in case of failure; in this case T & T from WCR. At least the dead Duff was near home (Carnforth).

It's a bit worrying when 'heritage' diesels are often much older than most steam loco's were when I saw them in the 60s, especially the wasted Standards.

P

Have one for me !

Reciprocate (spelling?)!!!!!

Cheers matey.

I'm a fan of John Lennon.

Which song / album?

If you have ever heard him speak he sounds so similar it is freaky! Some people in the early 80's started a rumour that he would join in with a Beatles reunion which is almost plausable!

The song was on R2 yesterday (Thursday) and was something like I'd like a heart. Sorry I can't remember as I didn't hear the title only the end of the number.

P

There's plenty here. Do you want some. Problem is they are going rather fast and make take some catching?!

like Bob said its blowin in the wind

'In the shower....'LOL.

My wind is coming from the west and at hight speed :-) perhaps that's why there is not much rain here as it must have been dumped on the Dales/Pennines and/or blown to bits on its' way here!!!!

P

LOL

So it was you flying past me at 70 when I was doing 56, obeying the laws of physics ;>)

Hey Beast - thought it was you. Sorry I didn't wave but I was asleep.

Sorry to hear that chap Best of luck in finding work elsewhere.

I'm sorry for the way they are treating you guys. I hope everything works out in the long run...

Nelson would turn in his grave - its sad to hear someone else got the same news I did a few years back. Its appalling to the extreme.

Is everyone going to be evacuated there?

LOL I'd make a joke about enemas but I can't seem to get started.

This is something on my to do list when I am old

As they used to say for "don't get flustered"

- keep your hair on!

Its Betty Swollocks time.

LOL

I'm sure there is worse places to visit.

If we had known you where coming we wouuld have opened up specially!

Perhaps I was too early but even at 10.15 there were a load of blokes boozing at the station pub. They went to Barton thank goodness.

Sorry I missed the Cleethorpes Light Railway though; I'll have to go again.

Trouble is that wherever you go, other than very remote places, they seem to spread there eventually like oil on water.

My village is very quiet, the yobs get bored so don't hang around.

I can find you a few words, decency however prevents me typing them.

LOL

Is that not pronounced "Scoon" and made of solid rock?

I'm sure you'd rather have saffron cakes though Phil !

Oh yes. I think the latest keep healthy/fit ploy is to eat a reasonable number of s'gones/saffron cakes and then do an appropriate number of lengths in the pool and followed by an hour in the gym. Trouble is it's getting a bit expensive and not leaving a lot of time for modelling!! Suppose I could finance all this by selling surplus kits etc. and then I wouldn't need so much modelling time anyway!

Cheers guys!!!!!

Think I'll put in some overtime for various things like call outs and boiler problems before I depart. That will pay for a couple more loco's! What I need is some snow to do for the boiler and some vandals to break into the site; where do I find that/them apart from Doncaster or Mexborough?

Remember everyone can read....! Even as we 'speak'your new boss has probably got you down for latreene duties in the morning... proabably

Is your boss a member of RMWeb?

yes thats correct mallard, its near sibson airfield, a light aircraft has hit a electricity pylon, state of the pilot unknown

Well I do hope the pilot is OK.

Hi Mallard,

I've wondered this too. I'm currently in the process of putting droppers in on mine.

well i did it ALL yesterday so count me out

I've been wiring (well intending to wire) my layout extension for three weeks! Truth is I'm a coward!
