I blame it on cistern failure myself...

Is it all an insurance fraud? On a big scale!!!! Who would want to check out a phone that's been down the pan???

It was in my combats pocket I took it out to put on the windowsill and tripped on a mat phone sailed through the air and splash. A few four letter words were shouted. I love the comments. :-D

Er... is it under the cork?

nope checked there.

It will be where you left it. Where did you leave it???

Oh dear...

What is brown and sticky then?

I had a load about Irishmen, but that famous manufacturer of garden furniture objected to them, you know, Patty O'Chair

I saw this advert in a window that said: “Television for sale, £1, volume stuck on full.” I thought, “I can’t turn that down.”

Tim Vine. He'll brighten your day.

If you get stuck you are using too much glue.

Kit!

Should have posted cards early

Sounds better then the phone call I had from the 'Big-Boss'

I thought I was having a nightmare, then found I was at work!

Work is the curse of the drinking classes.

Nope not G4S

Thanks PT!

Well done, good luck

Good Luck Gary

onward and upward, they only spend your money anyway! better spent on trains. As my son says there just for fun, the women not the trains !

When this happens it can be the best day in your life. It happen to me and I've been married for over twenty years now.

Thanks Guys!

As they say, "Trains are for life, not just for Christmas"

You do what you feels right....

Did you ask him/her if they forge their own hammer heads ? - pfff amateurs.

Amazed at the cynical and petty commentary that come out of railway modellers mouths. Shame on that armchair modeller.

Yes the issue is that the transaction was in September and I no-longer have the postage details.

My lawyer told me to always keep everything for ever so I am drowning in bits ofr paper

ASk in the relevant forum area please, status updates are not for asking questions

Yep three tons to go in the 'morrow - who's idea was it to have raised flowerbeds...

Must learn never to listen to the missus!

8 tonnes should of got you quite far mind you locos dont steam well on dirt.

sounds great, just doing the same for a new layout im building in 2012

Ohh new layout? What's happening to the BMR?

Horsted Keynes, and east grinstead will remain, all be out door sections need quite a bit of work, Instead it will be a sort of exhibition layout, which can be split up and taken appart, has been in plan for a while, just at this time designing buildings to be scratch built.. of course layout will be sheffield park.

Now comes the hard part....

Yep - done most of the track laying in one hit. Just got the goods yard to secure down.

I expect some pics later ;-)

Don't bother with the Hornby 4VEP, the Bachmann models are far better - I own one example of each so I know!

I have read all three threads thoroughly, but so far the only conclusion I have is I hope Bachmann do a 4-CIG.

I would love a 4CIG myself but I love any SR Mk1 EMU!

Mind you dont glue your fingers together.

If he has, his fingers will be crossed for a little while.

Trying to keep the base & post together is challenge enough. Right now it might go back into the box...

They don't get it do they? surely they must understand that it is vital to use all this space!

you could be down the pub leering at other women .....

I don't think she'd see it that way somehow ;-)

Ho what have you done.

Seen the light! LoL...

Large Logo Class 73 Ray... Oh dear. I blame Richard.

Tea and cake is always in order!

Tunnock's Teacake.

Agreed, tea & cake went down a treat!

Isn't it better to cut at the baseboard join after you've laid it?

Probably. :-D

I like to do things differently, that way I can say it doesn't work. Its not so bad currently cellotaping the plan together as it keeps moving.

Special Scotch Express perhaps?

I wish - something far more modest. I am intending to rebody a GW Toad into a Metropolitan 1869 4-Wheel Brake Third for that lovely 'Light Railway' feel.

plug and pray more like

more like 'curse & swear' No-one told me it doesn't come with fish plates... and that I need to trim sleepers. :-D

Locos sure are great healers, are they not? :-)

Yes they are! Currently cleaning my track in preparation.

post a topic and we'll see what we can do to help

Quite, thank you.

who ya gonna call......

Perhaps I should ask the question of 'Southern' or 'Great Western' on the next conversation. :-)

you are a Bachmann Salesman's dream !!

Indeed - if only they did a decent range of SR Locomotives.

That sounds great - it's the layout I've always wanted to do!

It wasn't intentional I can assure you, although a Terrier hauling a B Set does look 'right'
