About highpeakman

Profile Information

  • Location
    Close to the GN & GE Joint Rly north of Lincoln.
  • Interests
    Very broad interests but perhaps focused more on BR Midland - Derbyshire, Notts and Lincs areas in late 50s/60s - Wirksworth, Buxton, Cromford & High Peak in particular - Also GC Main Line around Nottingham + any Industrial railways (NG and Standard). Old enough to remember C&HP in working order, Trent Junction Station, Derby Works in full flow, Windcutters at Nottm Victoria, prototype Deltic at Grantham and a few other things I miss.A believer in modelling to capture the feeling/atmosphere of the time/prototype even if some details are not correct and of the right to run what I like.

  1. Wife is a Blue Badge Holder. At lunchtime we found disabled parking slot occupied by Nissan Navaro (Pick up truck as big as a 9F) but not displaying any blue badge. Probably because driver does not have ability to park such a big thing in a normal space! Such selfish actions make me mad!

      Actually it was a pub car park. After a discussion with the manager at another pub a couple of weeks ago (where evn the pub employess park in the disabled spaces) I just could not be bothered to make a fuss. Having previously "discussed" the issue with offenders I have found it is a waste of time. Depressing.

      Did the tyres accidentally deflate by any chance?

      Must confess I was tempted! Trouble is that I can't now move as fast as used to! :)
