Free At Last

I have a facebook account, they can be set up with false identities for those suffering from paranoia It allows me to join various groups on subjects of my interest; railways, local music venues, local community, local history and others. RMWeb has a facebook page giving information on site problems. I've even had a quick response to a question from PECO. You don't have to accept any facebook 'friends'. As an example 'Grosmont MPD News' https://www.facebook.com/groups/878824592263336/ has daily updates of maintenance and repairs carried out at the shed and I find it an enjoyable waste of my time.

....using 'Use Full Editor'.

What do we sign in with?

So, not Bryan Ferry then. I was wondering who Quay was..

An RTR wheelbarrow.... did it come weathered?

A few years ago I gave my son £10,000 in cash to take home with him to Southampton, he said he was frightened to get on the train with that much money. I said "who knows you've got it". He tried to put it the bank before he left and they would not take it. He took it home and had to deposit it in smaller amounts.

R.I.P. Geoffrey Bayldon BBC News I loved watching him as Catweazle and as The Crowman in Worzel Gummidge. They remind me of much happier times.

A good reason to wear a hard hat.

Is this something similar from DCC Concepts... http://www.hattons.co.uk/81131/DCC_Concepts_DCF_BR2_Bearing_Reamer_Pack_x_2/StockDetail.aspx

It takes me longer than that to put the vents on the roof, I would be no good on the assembly line.

Where are the RTR Dapol Stanier coaches assembled that are sold in Hattons (not checked other shops) for £12.00?

Will insulated joiners still be necessary on unifrog points?

Hattons, for one... http://www.hattons.co.uk/270178/Peco_Products_SL_114_Pack_of_24_finescale_rail_joiners_for_Peco_SL_108F_bullhead_track/StockDetail.aspx

Or maybe a ceiling rose.

Several more will jump in to say no one is forcing you to buy it and that candles are available for those that are cash strapped.

Roll on death.

Why did that feel like reading a poem.

Really enjoyed seeing this layout today at the Liverpool show. Watched it for a while, there was a lot to take in and always something moving. I suppose knowing the location well also made it more interesting. My older brother got brought home by a policeman one day, him and his mate were caught throwing stones at the engines from the footbridge and one hit one of the footplate crew.

I have three Princess Coronations with fixed flangeless trailing wheels, none came with a spare flanged set.

Slightly OT but... A few years ago on a site I was on there was a diesel tank for the site plant. It was opposite the gatehouse where the key was held and all fuel was logged and signed for. Anyone found misappropriating site fuel would be dismissed. I said to my workmates what about that van by the portakabins, no one is bothered about him stealing fuel every day. They looked at me puzzled. I said it is an electric van and there is a lead from it going through the cabin window.

Flanged trailing wheels are a good sign.

I rang back and said I don't want one, they were fine about it.
