Sasquatch

Anything You Can do, I Can Do Better ! Robinson and Downes. If the title is any thing to go by Allan will be getting the malt whiskeys in!

Not the same superbitch I hope.

Adventures with the layouts has to be the most fun within our hobby! I usually take Dunster to the show and let the kids have a go. The local boys organised an big modular weekend with the Bay Area guys. Unfortunately one club didn't know the other was dcc and the other club didn't realise the other was dc. Best S'quatch.

Hi Clay, It's hard to tell who's layout is who's some times! The Ford anglia is about as Harry Potter I went after discovering the station is famous with all the North Eastern buffs and the preservationists!!

See my blog Jaz, its at the bottom of all my posts! Who's doing the camping coaches? they're a must!

Not wanting to invade your thread gents but you might like this. Staring down the barrel of a stug in't West Riding, aye. Now theres a scary thought for a might have been layout. (Thought it might just tie in with tanks and dereliction theme today).

For some reason I thought you were in Canada. We rent by the way, so its the rental agency who send the gardeners arround, much to my disapproval because I love gardening! I need to learn spanish being so close to California about 1 in 10 can't speak english arround here. Shaun

Can't you get a gang of Mexicans in to do it? Trouble with our lot is they can't tell the difference betwwen the wisteria and the blackberry.

Thats right T54! not good with soviet armour! Got any ruins Allan or Iain?

Morning people. Well its 42F promising to rise to 89F. I'm up before the cats this morning maybe I should pester them for my breakfast. Am taking this oppertunity to look through Dave Fs dads photos before a long day with the compressor, sray gun, and gallon of varnish. Might even have cold toast in solidarity for Don!

T 52s in Chester, not sure that would have been Hitlers worst nightmare but ours!

Morning Don! Mid winter down there right now. Thats hard to imagine. Sounds like its a bit nippy, hope that toast is warm! Best Shaun

What a mamouth task Dave. There are details in some of these pics which totally inspire. A big thankyou for your efforts. I wonder what your dad would have thought about his images being seen all over the world. Regards Shaun. I'll get up early tomorrow and finish going through this thread.

Quite an ordeal there first thing Simon. If anything like that happens again, Bag over the head, zip tie him up, chuck him in the basement and we'll send in the Gump! That'll put a stop to his antics! Hope you're ok.

Lewes. County town of East Sussex on the line from Newhaven to London and the Brighton Eastbourne line.

Just love that county hall its reminds me of the county court in Lewes.

New haven Niel. You're spot on. The most fun with our hobby is to be found with the kids. Thats why a have installed a 6 pin socket on the front of dunster, for the kids to have a go at the Medford show each year. Last year one Boy was dragged screaming from the hall after I suggested he let the next kid have the controller! I hardly got to play trains myself! Great layout Grandadbob, anything digital scares the hell out of me! Know what you mean by trouble resisting buying stuff you like ie; wagon kits and American HO building kits like the ones above, there's nothing better than kit bashing on rainy days! Just wish my kid was still into it.

Bloke walks into an empty bar with an adidas bag. Wakes up the barman, and orders a flagon of finest ale then tells the barman that he needs some entertainment in here upon which he puts the holdall on the bar and pulls out a small piano. Action man then jumps out of the bag and starts playing lovely classical music. The following night the bar was packed. The barman tells the bloke he can have free drinks all night but wants to know where he got the action man. "Its a long story (these kind of jokes always are) but I found a four leaf clover one day when I was drunk in the fair isle, thing is I don't remember wishing for a twelve inch pianist!

Found some more pics.

The last layout sagged but lucky I'm a cabinet maker and can over come this problem. My gt.gt.grandfather's sir name was Law I believe, that would have been my grans grandfather on her fathers side. Definately Southern days but I've no idea which box. Might have been found trainspotting in the yard entrance near the top of Lovers walk myself in the late seventies. We've a Brighton here in Oregon, it's so small you could fit it under Brighton station roof!! Regards Shaun.

There's a thread all about it.http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/68485-wills-new-point-rodding/ The Station Master goes into great detail!!
