It gets me how often current affairs, satire and jokes seem to find their way into "businesses" on layouts.

 

However, these jokes have occasionally been known to get slightly cheesy ... .

Whilst on the topic of layout "business" names, I could almost imagine some alternative uses for the "Pan-demic" name - like a train scrapyard ("pan" apparently being a slang term for a pantograph - and "demic" apparently a term associated with some trains that no longer work). Alternatively, I guess a name like this could be used for a catering business run by a 21st century equivalent of Mary Mallon (but the less said about such a prospect, the better) ... .

Having only just got round to viewing this issue, I find that the links to the videos on the title page are incorrect. Both the first two take you to the practical vid, and the third one to the 'Feature' vid, so the layout vid of Copenhagen Fields is missing...

 

Would it be possible to post a link on here perhaps? 

 

Thanks in anticipation!

I wonder... do the staff responsible have any intention of fixing these?

It really is remarkably easy; I know, I used to be a web developer in a previous life... in fact it's remarkably easy to get it right in the first place... :scratchhead:

Those should all be fixed as of now; I've just checked at this end.
