Acrylic or Enamel? Enamel all the way for me as it just seems more user-friendly (and it tastes better too)

Been playing trains for the first time in months. Fun, but highlighted a couple of glitches with B2B measurements and catching switch-blades

I'm totally knackered and sore. 5 hour walk on Saturday with the girlfriend, followed by 6 hours out on the mountain bike on the Surrey Hills yesterday. Three crashes, one which has left me somewhat battered and bruised.

The one that got me was over the bars, straight onto my head. Cleared the double / table top fine and then the front end washed out in a load of mulch and over I went - thought I'd got away with a soft roll but gravity had other ideas. Didn't notice until an hour later that my bars weren't straight.

Busy filling the gaps in PCB sleepers with Milliput whilst listening to Pink Floyd's Animals.

I have a new least favourite job; filling the gaps in PCB points. Filler seems to want to stick to and go everywhere except the gaps and I just know that when I come to sand it down, the filler will fall out.

Had 'Minnie The Moocher' in my head all afternoon and only just Youtube'd it. Blues Brother's version, but it's a winner:

I've just discovered, to my peril, that using a craft knife to trim ones toenails is not such a good idea.

'Victoria' by the Kinks - what a song!

Having the worst day at work I've had in years. Told a fan heater to f*** off before for no apparent reason. I think the stress is getting to me

Thinking of generating more interest and views for my Layout topic by renaming it Bacup TMD (where TMD stands for The Middle of't Dales)

A biking video from a couple of weeks ago. Crap music. Me in front; me falling off at 2:05 - http://www.pinkbike.com/video/234808/

Too long; since I was about 18. Bizarrely, only got into DH when I moved to South London (I lived in the Lakes previously), although my first race was at Gisburn Forest. Never really set the DH world alight as it were, although have always placed in the top half of my category. Best result was 13th in Masters (out of 45) at a Dragons round at Rheola a few years back. It may not sound great, but Rheola is one hell of a tough course.
I used to love Super 8's (I've still got a...

A break from modelling today; took the Downhill bike out and went to Hindhead with a couple of mates. Cold, damp, muddy, slippy and fantastic fun. I only had one crash; a bar-hump caused by a mud filled hole - basically, where you nearly go over the bars but instead go along the trail with your crotch / stomach on the bars & stem, before the inevitable happens and you end up in a heap on the floor.

Just bought my 5 year old Nephew his first train set - Thomas Passenger and Goods set. Of course, I just HAD to test that it worked

My brother isn't a railway fan in the slightest but he has two sons who are utterly obsessed with them. I think he is resigned to the fact now and it does mean that when Uncle Jason comes to stay (or, more usually, when we are all at my Mum's house), he gets a bit of peace and quiet whilst Uncle Jason is on his hands and knees pushing Brio trains around, or reading the Rev W Awdry stories to an appreciative audience. Olly (the recipient of the Thomas set) is also obsessed with bikes s...

Should be getting bored of knocking together terraced houses now but for some reason I'm not
