      No. Alert the authorities at once so they can put you under psychiatric care.

      Nothing beats a nice Kernow traffic jam in the sunshine - they will be so fortunate.

      Since when did the M5 reach Cornwall ??? Glorious again today, lots of sunshine, some of it was a bit wet though...

  7. Kronenbourg 1664 going down well on a finely manicured lawn prior to impending storm.

      Oddly enough - We will be in Glastonbury on the way to St Ives Cornwall! - I will have to find a local hostelry with SKY :)

      Will you have any players? :)

      That one's below the belt :-)

      From what I've heard there'll be a team of 11 on the pitch + some subs. Whether they'll be professional footballers is another thing entirely!

      Enjoy St.Ives - nice place but too busy for me in August.

      Take care.

      Drax & West Burton are giving us some blessed relief!!!!!

  13. Sounds like a Crisis.... Thats usually my department. Ian
  14. Yes good work on the 37 tumblehome gap. Always dropped it by a couple of mill on the Baccy versions by filing the top pivot boss.Seems odd the Baccy NRM Deltic is spot on. Probably down to track rad clearances? N Gauge not my thing but very impressed indeed Cav. Ian
  15. Knightwing bits done - York fuelling shed project on the go - top beery weekend looks good

  16. Knightwing bits day today - then beer weekend :)

  17. Beer weekend :) bring it on.......

  18. Beer weekend :) bring it on.......

  19. ELR Diesel @ BURY - DEMU clash - oh well....

  20. ELR Diesel @ BURY - DEMU clash - oh well....

  21. Its the old Warhammer method! say your original tint was sleeper brown mix a shade slightly lighter then wipe off nearly all what is loaded on your brush then dust over the ballast / model enhancing the raised bits. Do a Google for a better description but seriously your track looks very good indeed especially the overgrown unkept look which I seem to struggle with. Ian
  22. 37901 booked for Driver Exp on the ELR - 14th Sept - bring it on :)

  23. 37901 booked for Driver Exp on the ELR - 14th Sept - bring it on :)

  24. Trackwork looks great Leon - one thing I do is lightly drybrush the ballast to enhance and detail - this lightens up the tint then usually oil stains gets liberally blasted over most of it anyway! - as for ripping it up - heavens NO. Ian
  25. Excellent sequence of images Leon apart from the last one - scenic break tunnel? - don't know about poor quality the VGA looks the business. Ian oh and a nice filthy faded CARGOWAGGON.
