Just had some U Tube reviewer of new products groupy tell me that a USA 0.6.0. is a Pannier Tank as it looks like a BR WR 15XX. Grief!

In 1964, the Mini Skirt ruined my interest in Trains. Pah!

Me too thank goodness........although my journey to work on the Eastleigh Flier (WC/BB or BR5/4 or N or U on the front) became more interesting as the 1960's progressed.
Mary Quant was though a great designer and certainly a great influence on the 1960s and beyond. Attractive and interesting women too. RIP.

This is not really Christmas as so many would know it, however that does not prevent me from wishing everyone a safe and happy time tomorrow and should you be on your own, then please know that many are with you in spirit if not in person. Take care, be kind and may the next year coming be one that allows all to return to a better World.

Move to Buxton in wonderful Derbyshire is complete, well all our stuff is in the house. Some work for Mrs B and me to get some semblance of order. The main problem at the moment seems to be locating something you have seen amoungst the boxes but can't remember where?
Still at least the snow has arrived to greet us!
The model railway room - work to do!
Kind regards

Hi Leander,
I am not a stranger to Derbyshire we lived near Ashbourne. We were cut off without power for three days due to a snow storm followed by deep freeze which took down the power lines. Fed the family hot food cooked over our one open fire - stew was a favourite!
I have long discarded my thermals though so must get some!!
Kind regards,
Richard B

When attempting to send a letter to an address in Germany yesterday, I now find that instead of an 'EU destination' stamp, I now have to put three separate stamps on the envelope, to the total value of £1.45. Of course, there is no £1.45 stamp. You need one for £1.42, then one for 2p and (incredibly, they still exist) one for 1p.
Is this some kind of Bre*it-related farce, I wonder?

I've just realised that most of my family live within 260 miles from South Devon. Top banana.

I must warn you all that there are individuals loose in society, who are involved in an activity known as 'spoon carving'. Do not approach any such individuals if you happen to encounter one. Stay in your vehicle and wait for the Horrocksford W.I. to rescue you.

We went up to Stockport by train on Wednesday to visit our (pregnant) daughter. On Thursday we got the train to visit Buxton for the day, a town I rather like. Little did we know that we got the last train back to Davenport Station before closure of the line! I remember noting a couple of police vans blocking the roads close to Whaley Bridge station but thought no more of it!
Don't have any more railway trips planned!
