That really does look the part. -
Your pace and mine are not too different!

This is looking superb. I think you might have to change the thread title. You are well past "beginner" stage now! Cheers David

That is great news Andy. Onwards and upwards now! Cheers David -
I think you are right. I remember there was a lever in the Fouldubs box I could not even move. The signal was a long way from the box. The signalman seemed to move it quite easily.

Much enjoyed the latest video. The chalk embankments are particularly effective. Cheers David

And a sterling job you are doing. What a lovely collection of locos. Cheers David -
The street extension is complete and primed ready for painting. The white paper is the footprint of the tenement. Cheers David

Your rendition of Mallaig is coming on a treat. Brings back long distant happy memories. Cheers David -
That is all looking rather splendid Mr P. Cheers David

I have started to put the full size signal together. They are bigger than you think! The semaphore arm is 4 ft x 11 inches. The length of the whole thing including the spectacle plate is 70 inches.

Back on the model I have started extending the scenic section above the tunnel mouth. The original plan was to have a low relief tenement but I have since decided to model a full tenement, front and back and to extend the street further back to include a further building. Brian at Braeside is working on the tenement now so I thought I should complete the base on which it will stand. Cheers David

I am not sure you have really seen the view from our house. We overlook the Dornoch Firth and can see all the way from Dunrobin Castle to Portmahomack. Our visitors are diverse. Sparrowhawks, Buzzards, Kite, one resident hedgehog, Herons, House Martin's, Swallows and bats to name a few. Oh and most of my good lady wife's relatives! We are very lucky to live where we do. Other visitors include the daily visit from the RAF. Eurofighters practising their bombing runs to the weapons range at Tain. So a daily air display. We have 8 acres, mostly mature Birch wood, so does not need too much looking after. Some is cleared out to garden.
