Mikkel

oh the irony as thousands stand in their dank evening queues in the deepening gloom, noses pressed against the steamed up windows, wagon envy racing through their cortexes as they wait for their........ tram in Edinburgh!

Where do I buy shares?

Hardly "extreme modelling", more like the start of a mass movement... :-)

The trick is that I don't have kids!

Does this mean your son will be flogging you on eBay as a professional weathering job?

Don't give him ideas!

Thanks Jonte, yes a bit nostalgic at the moment. Why can we not have the past and the present at the same time? (cue toys and pram).

Mikkel, you need to go here http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00cwgs6

It's wonderfully stupid.

Hehe, very good :-)

I did. Deckard said it came out 'negative', but with no termination date. Phew!! Gotta dash...

Good Luck :-)

Good Luck :-)

You in the Sahara?

Just at home. Quote is from Big Two Hearted River by Hemingway. Forget all the macho "Papa" stuff, these short stories are some of the best ever written.

Hi Robin. London actually. Off to check your thread now!

Should have popped in to say hello.LOL.

I was working - but managed to get a day out to see some trains! Blogging on that just now.

Explain please

I don't know exactly what captivated means in this context

Hi Job :-) I mean I find it fascinating!

This is my investigation - not a public inquiry.

Got it on repeat this evening. One of the best they did, I think.

Are you in dire straits Mikkel.

May the best card win!

There's only one way to find out.Fight !

Another vote here. If you've made them, Mikkel, they'll be brilliant pigeon baskets :-)

Thanks, but I was referring to the wish list poll, where they are included as a (delightful) option. It obviously helped to approach a couple of MPs on the matter. Pigeon baskets for the people! ;-)

Then you'd have to model pigeon s**t too.

Right, we're in it for life!

But ... they (and your partner) are also your best teacher

You're right Job. Old dogs can learn from the young dogs.

Clawing at the door, except there is no door! Revenge is nasty but pleasant. Thanks for cheering me up, Castle :-)

LoL - I had forgotten about your prisonor...

You should try it. Model railway vodoo is good for the soul and noone gets hurt (much).

What is it with you and Tom Hanks.LOL.

:-)

Fancy a tub of Philadelphia?

Hopefully in a good cause?

As long as he's not tempted to pick his nose immediately after....

You mean you never test glue before using it? :-)

Glad Disney didn't get hold of them. Never forgiven them for what they did to Winnie-the-Pooh.

You mean (A.Ferguson) surely ?

*picks up a card*

"Bank Error In Your Favour - Collect

Personally I wasn't too keen on Borgen at first, but the new season is pretty good. There's even a British bloke who appears occasionaly. Export promotion maybe? :-)

We don't get series 3 until next year :-(

(Insomnia, Mikkel? 04.46!)

I guess the UK is just not politically ready for series 3 yet... sigh. Danish society is much preferred. And the more interesting railways too! ))

But how will my railway earn its revenue? No - I like to see them in there but I just don't like the journey. One reason I like doing locos and wagons I think!

Regards,

Castle

I'm with you on that one Mikkel, it's a job I always keep putting off.

Yes, someone ought to invent something :-)

now that's heading towards heavy culture. Who's for the influence of Wittgenstein on the Worsdells or cave art is a direct predecessor of the styling of Collett?

Not sure Collett would have liked that :-)

Mikkel: Don't feel too pathetic about it - we're all really good at something: His fort

My last French car was good in the snow and great with winter tyres on. That was until it got lowered - a lot. This 'spanish' one is indifferent.

I also had winter tyres on. But they iced over somehow, so couldn't get a proper grip and pull free.

Never seen that happen before. Anywsy I like the Renault look, but the technology...

:-)

You wouldn't see me dead in one of those.

Hell no...

Is that near Much Binding in the Marsh?

:-)

What about a thimble?

An icing nozzle?

Found one :-) Tip of a paint brush handle! Need it for a scratchbuilding project.

He's as good as you !

On par with him I'd say

No way. Dave's work is just brilliant. When the stock starts rolling into the station it'll be really special.

Second that
