    Al, you may already know about this site, but on the off-chance that you don't, and need French buildings, Google "Minifer" with no exclamation marks

    Well done Andy Murray - does that now mean he is Scottish, or British again?

    CK - I suspect there is another in the Highlands - a kadee coupler dropped on the floor between my feet and has vanished - totally, utterly and completely! Either that or one of your cornish piskies is on the loose!

    1. Ramblin Rich

      Ramblin Rich

      That would be the troublesome version of the piskie - the "peskie"!

      I think there's a Zillon mothership hiding somewhere north of Tiverton, and that's where it's gone...

    LH - trying to solder successfully to brass-plated screws is a total PITA -worth going and finding genuine brass ones!

      file the brass off and it will work

    I suggest that AndyB tries googling Free photo stitching for the answer

    I must be cynical - TV have just announced that the name "Sun on Sunday" was registered on Tuesday!

      The sun never shines on a Sunday, does it?

  18. shortliner

    Sun on Sunday maybe?

      Yes, it's all a PR disaster recovery exercise after the irretrievable loss of ad revenue. The same bottom feeders will still do what they do. Hopefully a few more people will now comprehend that tabloid journalism is a moral vacuum.

    Coombe Barton said - Not having a lot of luck with piercing saw blades today. - Rub a bit of bar soap on them - works wonders

    1. Coombe Barton

      Coombe Barton

      Thanks, but getting them into the saw frame the right way round and then without breaking them before they made contact with the workpiece was my problem earlier. Cack handed was one of the descriptions I applied to myself.

    CN - The answer to your ??? is CK - you've a long way to go to catch him up!

      I don't intend to - it's directly prportional to how much model making is or isn't done;-)

    1. 28XX

      28XX

      No, they weren't, because she's 5 weeks prem and was in SBU. But youre right, she'll sort it herself. Ho hum zzzzz.....
