Weird day today. Turned up for work 0600 to find out I actually had got the day off I applied for, returned home to discover someone had nicked my house name plate. Either tatters or someone thought it actually was a real totem. Been struggling with a difficult model all day and now my stepdaughter and her mother have just had a pointless row over the usual nothing so everyones in a bit of a grump. Telford had better be good tomorrow....

Well that's the rubber poured on the first half of the mould. Hope it sets... it's a year out of it's use by date...

Well, after 39 years in the signalling grades, I've triggered my own article 50. Hoping for a smooth B.R.Exit in the next few weeks!

Well, almost time to go home from the PSB. Luckily, I'm off work until 3rd of Jan but due to a BT cable fault I'll have no phone and no internet over the xmas/new year period, the tell's not looking too good so...time to get stuck into the food/booze/round tuit box of kits etc. Have a Merry Humbug and I'll be back in 2013.

Well, just sent off for my PCV license forms. Got to give it a go!

As far as I understand it, I can carry up to 8 passengers as long as it's not for hire or reward and the vehicle can be a maximum 7.5 tons. I think 122 is somewhat more than 8 tons and has 74 seats. The museums I am involved with organise vintage running days where they give free rides on the old buses but they insist all drivers be PCV qualified even if they don't need to be. It's probably for the best just in case of any incidents. I don't think any driver CPCs are required...

Well, that's a start made on clearing out the old Beano annual collection. Ebay beckons. There's a 1948 one in there somewhere....

Well. I'm at work at Chester PSB, Hooton SB has already closed and the new panel is now undergoing final testing. End of an era, no more modelling at Chester PSB....probably.
