    So the Mayan calendar predicts that the world is going to end next Friday. So for our last weekend on earth, Martin Stringer has organised a pre-apocalypse piss up at the Marble Arch on Saturday evening. Im looking forward to drinking quality ale on my way to oblivion!

      Floyd and Jess will eventually do the same, they do get a bit over enthusiastic when we have visitors though!

  15. Andy C

    Off shortly to play the Royton Rememberance day parade, 3 hymms, "Nimrod" and the march "British Legion". Then ou Remebrance Day concert this evening. Always a reflective day that brings back memories of my dad who served in North Africa and Italy.

      Boarshurst Silver. A good morning, our first cornet Billy Reynolds was playing the last post for the first time ever, and he nailed it beautifully.

  16. Andy C

    I dont like Mondays, especially when Ive miss set the alrm and got up a half hour early!

    1. davefrk

      davefrk

      That could be 30 mins of modelling time then....

    2. davefrk

      davefrk

      What is it about the Company that both you and my SWMBO work for, she doesn't like Mondays either. But then she doesn't like Tuesdays or Wednesdays and the rest of the week is pretty poor aswell.

    3. Andy C

      Andy C

      Now as it happens Dave I'm having a particularly fruitful day so its a good Monday! Still a pain missing that half hours kip though, may just fall asleep on the computer screens this afternoon.

  19. Andy C

    WMD to most people means a Weapon of Mass destruction. In this house its a Wet Muddy Dog. No difference really I suppose.

    A Duchess has been obtained at last. Looking forward to this EM conversion.

    1. davefrk

      davefrk

      Surely you'll need to convert it to P4 for the new layout Andy, I'll see if I can find a photo of one at North Ballahulish.... Eh, nop...

    2. Andy C

      Andy C

      The problem would be the axle weight load limit on the Bridge Dave. So to EM it goes for an occaisional thrash round New Hey and on Glaisden running the "special"

    3. davefrk

      davefrk

      Okay, and I might let you gently trundle it round Wharfeside in 2014, if it's finished then. The layout not the loco....

  22. Andy C

    New Hey set up at the Holmfirth show, looking forward to playing trains tomorrow.
