I'm still trying to work out how you get a car to fit in a tuba. Presumably it goes in from the wide end, not the mouthpiece end...

I've been very impressed by the layout swallowing capacity of a Focus estate.

BUMMER! Only 2 weeks to me burfday to!

On the right side, the council has emptied the wheelie-bins today.

If it does Baggie, let us know lol.

How many of us actually admit to being railway modellers?

Got to feel soory for the gay MRJ readers

I couldn't care less if you're gay, a MRJ reader, or a gay MRJ reader. 'Tay none of my business what makes you happiest!

999?...

thats the austrailian beast init !

999 and australian beast? To quote Jeremy Clarkson in relation to Land Rover "That'l do"

Cheers!

Thank you

have now put some on...

Yay!

its falling slowly here this side of the hill but not setteling yet

Lets not start panicking people just yet. I beleive Wakefield show suffered from the same sort of monger scaring last year.

Have you seen "Serenity" the film that follows on from the TV series?

Serenity is worth a try... you should be able to pick a copy up cheap these days! Mine came with some nice postcards of directors artwork including a ncie shot of the boat "Serenit"y herself

Another vote for Serenity - mebbe a bit less tight than the series in places, but they spent their money really well.

X-Trail for me, a brill do-anything/go-anywhere common-carrier. A pal just bought a Land Rover and he's scared of getting it dirty...

Which site? I've heard good things about the Land Rover courses. If you've not been properly off road before you'll be impressed at what they can do.

Went to Coniston Cold in the Dales, a cracking day thoroughly enjoyed myself

Naw, he blew that big trumpet thingy at the salesman and he gave in, ha ha

Welcome to the green oval club.

I actually took the tuba to the dealership to see if it would fit in. The salesman said hed had a few odd thinng brought along including a goat, but this was a first.

Great news for Jess about the ramp; it`s quite a hop up and down from any Landy.

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

Congratulations on getting into model rail, I'll be watching out for the article, may I ask what your layout is called so I can read the article

Don't think it'll be the drink...

Moderation's fine....in moderation.

'Moderation is as Moderation does', as Kenneth Brannagh might say... ;-)

If you ignore them, there's a lot of modelling going on! Someone put the toys back though....we need something to play with!

Would that be a certain MRJ thread?

Liberal amounts of dummy-spitting too...

That's unheard of.

Details man. Otherwise how can we then try and trump it with our own tales of woe? (Hope its not affecting the music or modelling though)

Its an accumulation of festival going with other known individuals of the MMRS / RM Web, lets just say we tied one on and Im now paying the price. And yes, feeling so rough cant do band nor do any modelling.

Oh, they were playing hockey...

There's also ladies' beach volleyball, which seems inordinately popular.

I'm saving myself for the Ladies lacrosse team who are always at the manchester show on the Sunday Andy.

Theres quite a few members of the fellowship of the green oval on RM Web

Dont tempt me i really miss mine

Well get another one then, doesn't matter what type as long as it's got a green oval and LUCAS smoke in it's wiring, just don't let the smoke leak out of the wires, that's what I was told.....

All the best.

Well done Make sure you celebrate in the traditional manner!

I think the clebration has something to do with me feeling rather rough right now!

Well done

Second that. This sure was a horrible event :-/ ...

That must have been very worying at the time I'm glad they are okay

Quite close to Glastonbury then?

Practically on the doorstep, as he's come all the way from the Windswept Wilds of the North...;-)

Close enough to get very wet last Friday evening!(no mud though)

snigger, snigger, snigger

I didn't know Alan Gibson had a dog?

He had one planned but it turned out Bachmann are doing one too...

Wot model?

Can I interest you in some proper leaded 4-star?

Don't go telling 'em all about Otter ales, it's a well kept secret down here!

Sorry ramblin, Ive been drinking them since first went to BD years ago and been preaching the gospel ever since!

"Ale" & "Bright" are OK, but not keen on the bitter. Much prefer Branscombe's "Branoc".

Flatulant

Nice thanks, had a good nights kip and woke up full of the joys of spring.

Bhut Jolokia!

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...

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"

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

haha I think not. Caley.

DCC sound/light and Class 70's...

DCC sound light and class 17,24,26,27,37, set in the very early 70's.

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

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.

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.
