    Very tempted to cancel my order for Exe & Taw, and place an order for the three Lyds instead.

      The Three Lyds sounds like the kind of public house a horse would walk into and ask the landlord his opinion of Wordsworth.

      Does The Three Lyds serve evening meals?

    Just had a look through my models and realised I have an unintentional Bluebell Railway pre-grouping loco collection.

      I have quite a few Bluebell locos that seem to have appeared. But saying that having locos the kids have seen in real life helps keep them interested

      We've given up on it after more decades than I care to remember. Far too "right on" now, and no fun at all!

      Ten of the fifty are preserved; that's impressive for a class last built in 1880.

    Last night I dreamt that a OO gauge model of a S160 was announced. I'm taking it as a sign I shouldn't eat cheese before bed.

    Beep the Meep?!?

    1. Steamport Southport

      Steamport Southport

      I definitely remember Meep the Beep from the old Doctor Who comics in the late 1970s. Think of an evil but cute rodent that is a bit like Pikachu from Pokémon but was years before. I have an idea that they nicked it.

    Heljan OO gauge Met electrics and Dapol O gauge Terriers. Must resist (with the exeption of my pre-order for John Hampden).
