      As many as you can get into your house, without tripping over them ;)

  7. Oh dear! It's been so long since my last visit to RMweb. I really need to start working part time... if only, if only. I'd LOVE to get modelling again :(

  8. First time to Denver. Not that impressed.

  9. Soldering copperclad track and listening to Mike Oldfield. It's like the eighties never went away.

  10. Has almost finished wiring and laying the track!

  11. PIcked up my Dapol O gauge 08 yesterday - it's lovely! Now I need a decoder, driver, paint etc etc...

  12. No time for modelling in ages now. Been absent from the forum far too long. But the Dapol 08 has roused me... a little ;)

      How many of you (us) are old enough to remember the well known phrase "Never fear, Smith is here" ? Anyone recall the TV series that was from :)

  14. Why did I start building a wagon kit that is out of my timeframe that I only got for bits?

  15. Just ordered a vinyl record online from a shop in Fratton. Just two minutes walk from Fratton Model Centre in fact. Would be rude not to pop in, wouldn't it? There's also a Maplin Electronics inbetween them, this could be a dangerous trip out...

  16. Recieved a package of old-style containers and decals from, C-Rail - absolutely superb. Enjoying cracking on with my 1970s container train.

  17. Gluing 40 tiny door hinges on a coach. Does this hobby get any more exciting?

  18. What use would a spare shoelace have for a cooked breakfast?

  19. Not good weather for going out on a motor bike, bit windy.

  20. Do i sell my Bachmann Blue pullman or not, cant decide ?

  21. Still wishing I had at least some modelling time - but still not getting any at all.... dear Santa.......

  22. Well, it has been ages since I last looked on rmweb. Whew! It looks quite different! So much to look at..... think I'll lie down ;)

  23. How are you supposed to cope with a possible redundancy, especially after almost 28 years. Meantime, your employers still want future plans & projections... baffling!

      naturol, I think you're on to something! ;)

      I'm hoping that if / when it happens, I WILL have time for modelling again

      I may even build layouts at the rate I did a few years back, write articles about each, and flog the layouts afterwards

      Hmm, there's a nice thought!

      Thanks again for all your kind words of support folks

      It's the uncertainty that I hadn't thought would be just so unsettling....

      Thanks for all your kind words folks

      I never thought it would feel so unsettling

      I'm glad I'm not in my 20's or 30's, with a young family... that's one saving grace
