LNERGE

They were taken on a samsung fingy phone.

Try Recuva, should still work!

The errant machine and it operator are heading for my brother who does this sort of thing. No eyed deer what he uses but he seems confident he can recover something.

Thursday night?

March Down yard to March down yard? Via Cambridge. I'm hoping they were the proper indepent ones...

Not here I'm afraid on Thursday...

In diesel mode!

So presumably not yet cleared to run on electric power?

Every time i've seen it down here it's been on diesel.

Had my first AZ last Sunday .... tiredness and joint pains finally gone today..but that has been 45 days after a positive Covid test...

AZ. Feel a bit sluggish but that could be all the other ailments lol.

Both me and the Mrs are jabbed

Definitely. The model railway has never had so much attention. 

Little and often.  That's the way I try and get back after some time away from the layout.  Keep going matey.

Hope you get better soon Richard - in the meantime I'm glad the little railway keeps you going.

So long as it's not underwear

It'll make the news if i am modelling underwear.

I think I misunderstood when they said my modelling was pants.

Was she allowed out after midnight?

More like, was she allowed out *before* midnight?

Be careful out there in the flatlands before or after midnight.

Very near

Which one?

Windy Ham amd beyond

Its so small, no-one noticed....

it's life changing. I should be taking a leave of absence from work to put it all in.

Now you're just bragging. .

Blink and they grow up!

Lol, my first born turned 20 yesterday ......

My goddaughter turned 19 this year - it feels like only 5 minutes ago that I was feeding her a bottle in my arms!

I've never heard it called that before.

I hope Annett doesn't mind?

I think there's an ointment that might help.

Fringe.

A similar ride pre pandemic remains the most crowded I have ever seen a train. People sitting on top of seatbacks with their legs round people in seats. 

"People sitting on top of seatbacks with their legs round people in seats."

TMI.

Deffo not an Olivia's!!!!!!!

Biffoman

I got a Hornby 31 to work nicely so I though I’d get it a sound chip. What I got was rather lame. I don’t want to make the same mistake with the 37.

DC Kits ?

Replica Railways used to sell parts from their MLV kits which included those rubbing plates.  May be worth giving them a call?

many thanks

Fascinating.

Is this on a thread somewhere where I can ask questions?

No thread as such i'm afraid. You can PM me by all means.

Thanks, I will as I am most interested.

(This might take a day or two though!)

I've never been hinged...

A certain well known transportation organisation has been to my stores and taken one of my hinges. (They did ask very nicely first)

Come on, they begged really didn't they? I can report that its been fitted and the gates are available for use, but the road is still closed, which is good, as I can stay in the warm until the closure is removed....

Sounds par for the course. The minions at marketing have your name on their database!

Thats the problem with "Gentlemans" magazines.

Lol It's a bit closer to home than one of them.

Far too young... :-( RIP.

first concert i ever went to see

I saw them several times.

You've been done, it's flat.

That bit isn't

Iron the pages, should sort it out.

1 - 0 !

A little knowledge is dangerous thing! A crossword clue might say "Initially That Was Absolute Twaddle" (4 letters)!

I had to get them to move their potted ferns... they were on the veranda and foul of the loading gauge, Elys platforms have never been so clean!

Ely ?

Yes indeed.

Nice !

Are hard to keep on the track as they are so light!

I've managed to secrete a nice bit of lead sheet in the first one. I think it'll be ok.

You can get medication for that, I believe.

So it's your fault we have just had a torrential downpour !

Guess i'm guilty. Painting is the only job left to do on the groundframe i'm making. There was a fairly good show around 04:00 that woke the older kids but not the twins.

I can`t stand the rain

Against my window,

Bringing back sweet memories...

Build n play til ya drop! Then get up n do it all again !! Enjoy happy modelling!!

A Binns Road day to attend and thunderstorms that'll need chasing in the early hours of Saturday. That's one day taken care of. Better take Mrs P out somewhere sensible too i suppose..

Just two more days to go till the holidays on this end. Then: Modelling time!

Testing things while in your armchair, or testing actual armchairs?

Testing from the comfort of an armchair. I wonder if the armchair would need to be orange?

Best be on the safe side.
