RMweb Gold roundhouse Posted May 3, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 3, 2019 Kernow Guildford visited and apart from two tins of paint I came away without any new stock although a blue grey 4TC at a reduced price was tempting. Its a well stocked shop as expected and no doubt plenty of future visits will be made especially with two of the three nearby pubs being good. After a good chat with Ben etc. on the Revolution stand we had an hour to wait before meeting other friends in the café down the road so it was into the pub opposite the café. Sheds were discussed aswell as railway modelling before heading home. French doors ordered for the shed and windows sourced just a few miles away that can be collected even on Sunday so once the doors and timber arrive on Tuesday I am going to be rather busy. 19 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold grandadbob Posted May 3, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 3, 2019 (edited) Forgot to mention that I did collect the new roller blinds for the shed but due to an acute attack of lazyitis this afternoon I didn't get around to fitting them. That will be first up tomorrow then. I've also taken note of the favourable comments about Kernow's new emporium and must try to visit as it's only about 30/35 minutes away but that may have to wait for a couple of weeks or more. Just been advised that the replacement windows for the house will be coming week comm 20th May. It's all happening here.

tigerburnie Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 (edited) I couldn't bring myself to watch it, a LBP away is no shame, but it seems we were clueless for most of the game, pity we need to rely on someone else's mis-fortune rather than doing a proper job ourselves.

RMweb Premium TheQ Posted May 3, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 3, 2019 Evening Awl, On the way back from work I stopped at the bank.. It was raining... Inside the bank, on teller was on tills the rest were running round with buckets.. This was on the ground floor of a two story building... Just back from the MRC via the rallying course. Aka The A179, they been chucking gravel at it and missing. The tar they put down today didn't spread, there are thin lines of tarred gravel across the carriageway with piles of gravel up to six inches deep elsewhere. In some places there is a trench down to shiny old tarmac between the piles of gravel. I got plastered at the MRC, as Scarinish harbour rose from the sea of polystyrene.. Time to drink my choccy... Goodnight Awl. 10 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Dave Hunt Posted May 3, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 3, 2019 (edited) What it is to be a Leicester Tigers supporter. Although I'm more than thirty years past any sensible idea of playing rugby again, I think that I'd probably get a starting place at Welford Road these days. Are you available next season GDB? Apart from that, I was a happy bunny today when a large pallet load of cut Russian birch ply was delivered, even though I had to manhandle it bit by bit fifty yards down to the shed. Fortunately it wasn't raining. All I have to do now is turn it into baseboards and then make a toy train set. Sadly I can't start that process for another couple of weeks but it looks good stacked against the walls. Have a good night everyone and remember to put your light sabres on charge for tomorrow.

Popular Post Coombe Barton Posted May 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2019 I had the measles, the mumps, the chicken pox, the whole gamut of childhood illnesses before the days of vaccinations. I'm now immune, I trust. The vaccines available now should not be ignored by anyone. If people do, or fail to take them up, this to me smacked of irresponsible parenting. Never mind the freedom of choice, it's just plain irresponsible to expose your child and anyone they come into contact with, something so easily preventable. 7 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depart around 06:00, arrive home around 21:30 with something close to 5 hours at the show. 8 minutes ago, Dave Hunt said: ... remember to put your light sabres on charge for tomorrow.

RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted May 3, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 3, 2019 Evening all from Estuary-Land. Visiting a couple of model railway emporiums tomorrow in preparation for building a layout for my friends young lad. Last week at the Romford show he acquired a Bachmann TTTE 'Skarlowy' 009 locomotive so we are going to build a small 009 layout for him to run it on. It will only be a small layout (100 X 50 cm) with a loop of track so it shouldn't take too long to knock up a baseboard. 4 hours ago, JohnDMJ said: Are other names available? We had a chap on the payroll by the name of Richard Head. 11 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave, even Leicester Tigers wouldn’t sign me! Is Mr Murphy likely to remain at the helm? I did feel it was a huge jump up for him at the time.
