      I think there should be a club for slow modellers, with a prize for whoever took longest todo least.

      That would be the biggest club in the world. Probably.

  6. After today feels as if we would be better off just demolishing the whole railway system and making better use of the land and money.

      Is that better than being one spanner short of a toolbox?

    3. Huw Griffiths

      Huw Griffiths

      It depends if the missing spanner was the one you needed.

  15. Why are there so many window and door frames on a West Highland station?

    1. Captain Kernow

      Captain Kernow

      Because they need lots of light and access.

    2. BoD

      It would be a lot easier to model of they didn't.

    3. Trog

      Trog

      Because daylight is free.

  16. Last week butchering chunks of 2x2 timber, this week making and painting 4mm window frames, next week probably some of that electrickery magic stuff. What a hobby.

      Take some carrots with you for a quick snack when the light goes.

      Ordnance Survey, proper maps, without them we'd be lost.

  18. Dipping the glue brush into your coffee rather than the Mek-Pak doesnt work.

    1. Ian J.

      Ian J.

      Could have been worse. Van Gogh's violin and all that.

    3. JDW

      Having a sip of the Mek-Pak would probably be worse though

      Best to slow down, high heels and walkways play havoc after having to changing your clothes so many times too !:)

      If you're talking about Warley, I used to order my tickets directly from the club until I realised the Ticketmaster booking fee was less than the cost of two envelopes and double postage!
