    "This remarkable, sometimes incoherent transcript illustrates a phantasmagoria of fear, terror, grief, exaltation and finally breakdown." "Its' highlights have been compressed on this recording to make their own disquieting points."

    £200 for a Hornby 2012 B/G VEP. Two words spring to mind, the 2nd of which is 'off'....

      Cheers Jim, 'twas a pleasant sight on the way home from Speedway. Bumped into a very good old friend at New St as well (on his way to Wembley to work a 92 to Lichfield)

    75 minute bus ride today, with nothing more engaging than the back of my fag packet to read. Mood not enhanced when someone gets on & sits at the front with a copy of 'Brunel, the Man who bult the world'. :-(

      It's rude to read over people's shoulders. ;-)

  12. Dave47549

    A visit to Marcway & now I have no excuse not to join the EMGS - but i'd hate to drag down their standards! :-)

  13. Dave47549

    Aaagh, finally managed to source 10.5mm wheelsets online. Would have been easier to have gone hang gliding on a washing machine!

    Back to basics. Enjoying the simple pleasure of watching my Pannier on a train set oval whilst running in!

      I think the Bees have their eye on it.

    bought 'Modelling Scotland's Railways' last Saturday. I now need to apologise profusely to Mr. Futers - I should have bought one years ago!

      I agree, both his books are a good read.

    Came home today with a Hornby EMT 'brick', which doesn't exactly fit in with my cliched GWR stock. How did that happen??

  19. Dave47549

    currently has a Triang EM2 sat on his laptop. Why did i buy it? - have absolutely no use for it, but, it is nice! :-)

  20. Dave47549

    Daughter took me shopping today :-) Somehow i came home with a 4'x1' mdf offcut & associated 2"x1". How did that happen? - I must be (making) a plank!

      No excuses now then!

    Daughters contact visit with her mother today was made all the more bearable for me thanks to a lucky find of MRJ206 in a nearby charity shop ;-)

      A huge shame! I met him a few times and his wealth allowed him to be a great philanthropist - as well as keeping our lost cause alive.

      condolences to all at Wolves, not many of the true Chairmen come real fans left in the game in England now, it's all megalomaniacs from abroad with dodgy money nowadays.

      RIP to a man who liked what he liked....I think I know the man who took over ...

    Finally acquired a copy of GWRJ 54 today to satisfy my curiosity re: the Worcester vinegar branch. Stunned to find its proximity to Padmore Street, a place i've visited on many occasion. Surprised so much can still be traced on Google maps, something tells me I may be waylaid for a couple of hours next time I'm in that city!
