I was there that day! Clun Castle and Pendennis Castle both involved, I was invited into the cab of one of them. Cheers Don

These are awarded to returning guests at Sandals: A bit closer than the Ss on your ute but I'm not aware of anyone refusing them! Cheers Don

One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot accept money from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was pleased and left the shop. When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door. Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The cop was happy and left the shop. The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen doughnuts waiting for him at his door. Then a Member of Parliament came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The Member of Parliament was very happy and left the shop. The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen Members of Parliament lined up waiting for a free haircut.

If there are cattle on the dock then the empty train arriving is about to load, the empty train departing has just unloaded! Cheers Don

Walloon is the other one I think. Cheers Don

On a sample of my photos the EXIF data has gone completely and the date shown is the date of download not the date of posting or original photo date.

A man lays sprawled across three entire seats at a posh theatre. Before the show has even started, an usher walks by and notices the man. “Sir, you’re only allowed one seat, can you please sit up?” The man groans, but stays where he is. The usher becoming impatient with the man says “Sir, if you don’t get up, I will need to get my manager involved.” Again the man just groans, which infuriates the usher as he marches off to get the manager. In a few moments he returns with the manager and they both repeatedly attempt to move him, but with no success. It was at this point that the manager calls the police. Moments later, a police officer arrives and approaches the man, “alright buddy, what’s your name?” “Sam” the man moans. “And where ya from Sam?” With pain in his voice Sam replied “the balcony.”

Additions to the wharf.

A new yard crane installed and several new loads. Cheers Don

There may be a suitable small lorry in this lot: http://www.autocraft.plus.com/page33.html Cheers Don

The 0-4-0 was perfect straight out of the box but the 0-6-0 was a bit variable. Investigation showed that on one side 2 of the pickups were missing! Hornby sent me a new pickup plate (with all 6 pickups) without any question and now it runs really well. Cheers Don
