    It's Mothers' Day here in Holland on Sunday. Now... should I ask if I can carry on with Kinsley's second headframe this weekend, or is that a bad idea?

      Depends, if your mum's made the trip over then no but otherwise go for it!

    Just having a quiet evening reading through Freight Only - Volume 3. A spot of colliery research...

      Didn't say when I'd paint the staircase..... LOL.

      Won't it take a long time with an airbrush?

      Gallows Close

      Depends how big your brush is...

  17. Gallows Close

    Mrs. GC and the daughters are at the theatre tomorrow. Will I get some modelling time, or a list of jobs to do whilst they are out? Hmmm!

  20. Gallows Close

    Nice weather. Glass of wine. Any more modelling today? No - I don't think so.

  21. Gallows Close

    Small children and layout wiring. Why the facination?

    1. DonB

      DonB

      Wiring? It's only two wires, INIT??

      So why can't I get it right first time?

    The missus has just blown up the Dyson, and taken all hope of a new class 60 with it.
