  1. Just back from Danemouth's first exhibition - will admit to being totally cream-crackered., And thanks to all RMWebbers who introduced themselves.

      Congratulations on your 'first'; even if it did leave you pooped out.

      Nice to see and chat with you Dave and great to see that you've got there with the basics (and more) of Danemouth.

      Exhibitions are always more tiring than you might imagine, if you have never done one! I'm also absolutely shattered, as a few of us also went to Bristol O gauge the following day.

      Great to see Danemouth, and congratulations on your first show. Good to see you :)

  2. Danemouth is packed and ready for the Cardiff Small Show tomorrow - if you are there please do say hello!

      I'd like to be there but it's a long drive and the weather forecast is horrible. Hope you have a good show and looking forward to seeing some photos.

      Bottled is much better, but you must try "Fursty Ferret"

  5. Wiring Danemouth and at almost the last solder joint managed to burn my finger. I proceeded to say some very rude words!

      Take care Dave, asbestos fingers aren't too easy to find nowadays.

      Didn't want to do what - burn your finger - or "expand your vocabulary"?

       

      Seriously though, I'm sorry to hear that - I know that can be extremely painful - definitely NOT recommended ... .

  6. Has just purchased most of the bullhead track for Danemouth

      Try a tip from me, try to get it rail side upwards. It doesn't work very well the other way up.

  7. Harry & Meghan haven't invited me and I hate sport so I will continue clearing Danemouth baseboards and sanding them.

      Good to see that someone isn't wasting his time and is using it very constructively.

  8. Happy Chistmas, Peace and Goodwill to all!
