      I'm lucky when it doesn't timeout and it's been like this for days.:(

      Haha 0500 would only give me half an hour! The joys of a 16m old

  4. Didn't realise that going digital would involve translating so much German

  5. Took delivery of my new railway room 10'6"x6'0" shed today. Needs electrics and insulation before I move in though :-)

      Best get on with that. It's going to get colder. I'm just about a good few days off finishing up my new space :)

  6. Is off to Coventry...rather than being sent there...

      @gwrrob It's bit hard to get lost on a circa 1 mile stretch of road. I will admit it's incredibly easy to miss the one junction out of 8 that you wanted before you realise that you're going around again. That can be disorientating!

  7. Ordered the timber for my man palace

      Indeed. The damp-proof membrane, insulation and floor boards have been down for several weeks. Now enough timber for the stud walls will arrive on Friday. Once that is cut and erected I only need insulation, skins, door, mouldings, ceiling,... It'll be a while yet then :|

      Have you tried to contact BR lines?

  10. Suddenly September doesn't seem that far away........

      It's really not. I realised that I was behind on desired progress this year when I filled in my timesheet for week 12; i.e. end of first quarter.

  11. Looking forward to the Abingdon show tomorrow!

  12. Decision time, day out on the train cancelled due to weather, do i do some modelling or try and tidy the modelling room?

    1. richbrummitt

      richbrummitt

      Can you get in the modelling room?

       

      Yes - Do some modelling

      No - Tidy just enough space to do some modelling.

  13. Having a frustrating time soldering couplings up whilst fitting brake pipes.

    1. richbrummitt

      richbrummitt

      I already ran out of small drill bits. The worse thing is when you cannot remove the tip from the workpiece and have to start over.

  14. Decision time. Do I stay playing on the computer or do some tidying in the modelling room to try and find a workbench or floor.

    1. richbrummitt

      richbrummitt

      Compromise by finding the bench and leaving the floor.

  15. Had some crazy news today. On the plus side the Handel that I've had in my head for over a week has been replaced by another piece of music as a result.

  16. The plumbing in the gents has just made an alarming noise like a trapped animal!

  17. 1 banana, 4 scoops of vanilla ice cream, similar amount of milk, 2 tbs sugar, whizz up, enjoy...

      Haha! He has given her what she wanted (well, she's expecting) so fair's fair, right ;)

  19. Today I have been breathing on my wagons.

      46444, 2mm models have very little mass to stop the blast from the can taking them.

      Mikkel, Fortunately all soldered construction has its merits - just one buffer has a very slight bend that I couldn't get out completely.

      Tim, I learned that the hard way when I first started spray painting models and they bounced on the patio.

  21. There's an even little man inside spray cans. He times it so they run out in the middle of a paintjob.

      The last can I used had an odd little man in.

  22. The 5 items I purchased from a bag of 'assorted push to make switches' are not push to make. Grrr.

    1. richbrummitt

      richbrummitt

      I could still fit them but would have to remember to turn them off again after uncoupling. Not a good move methinks.

  23. Given in and bought a point motor

    1. richbrummitt

      richbrummitt

      Hopefully. I bought one for size and replanning. I will need at least another 6, excluding signals.
