    Picked up a Bradshaw's guide at the weekend. Superb coverage of the UK rail system, very small text. Also, quite out of date...

      I think Andy's struggling with 1 chair, 'some' might just be too much !

      Could've sworn that read as 'strategically' grassing. Not sure how that would work mind!

    3. Stubby47

      Stubby47

      Jam, that's when you only put the grass where viewers will see it (so not all over SWMBO's best carpet !)

      Statically grassing: Standing still and going over the same plot with lawn mower again and again while mind drifts to modelling projects ? :-)
