RMweb Premium Andy Hayter Posted 7 hours ago RMweb Premium Share Posted 7 hours ago Well there certainly are indexing issues. I have been bedevilled this evening by the other bête noir - people updating posts from months ago (usually exhibition announcements) that then screw up the unread posts listing Note how it thinks the update is in the past hour but then places it after a post 3 hours ago. I was completely unable to get past this. My usual tactics of opening this post and the post before changed nothing. Nor did updating the page several times. So I opened up a parallel session and got past the 3 hour blockage only to be confronted by Now blocked by the same thread but at 4 hours. I have raised this with Mr York but it seems nothing can be done. 1 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium BSW01 Posted 7 hours ago RMweb Premium Share Posted 7 hours ago Good evening everyone This morning was spent altering the corridor conditions that I’ve already made, as they had become just a little bit too long, making it very difficult to couple 2 coaches together. The reason for this is the addition of the black tissue paper to the top of the unit, when it’s folded up, it’s increased the closed thickness enough to become a problem. The fix is relatively easy, all I need to do is to remove one end, the cut one fold section off each side, then re-attach the end piece. I’m about halfway through the ones I’ve already finished and the new ones I made yesterday, are made to the new size. This modification, is much easier to do on pre-built units that the previous modification I’d made. Well, Max did turn up today, so we spent the afternoon in the workshop. He started a new model, an Aston Martin DB5, another of the kits that Mike left behind when he moved out. Mike had started this one, but he’d not done much to it, so I said to Max, there you go, let’s see how much you remember. He didn’t do too badly, but he did make a mistake very early on, but this was easily remedied. I’d not been back home long after dropping Max home, when it started to rain, it’s been raining ever since! Just before Max got here, Royal Mail delivered my package, so I was able to open it and check the contents, before he arrived. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted 6 hours ago RMweb Gold Share Posted 6 hours ago We went to Enfield to see Aditi’s Mum today. No traffic problems today. After lunch I fixed a protective cover over a 13amp fused switch. It isolates the boiler but “someone” has been turning it off recently. MiL insists it isn’t her doing it. Aditi’s brother visited her yesterday and he asked if I could have a look at the blind in a Velux window. There are repair options shown in YouTube but this is beyond repair. One operating cord is broken and the handle for operating the blind has been torn off. I think someone had tried to shut the window by pulling on the blind. I don’t think it is MiL , she couldn’t reach it. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium TheQ Posted 3 hours ago RMweb Premium Share Posted 3 hours ago (edited) I think a good way of using the heat in the tubes would be to use them as the ground / air source for heat pumps for the buildings above.... UK sources of house fire. From https://www.intelligentsecurity.org/fire-prevention/UK-fire-statistics/ Luckily most people in the UK who have such things, keep their field ornaments in the fields and don't attach the stables to the house.. It being stupid o'clock at the moment so appropriately I can access ER quite easily.. Edited 3 hours ago by TheQ 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium BR60103 Posted 2 hours ago RMweb Premium Share Posted 2 hours ago We were up and away early today to Stratford for a forum discussion. Panellists were Adam Gopnik (New Yorker writer) and Rosalie Abella (Canadian Supreme Court, ret'd). A nice friendly discussion of current events for 90 minutes. Stopped for a show of parallel strips of metal on the way back but didn't spend any extra money. Missed a phone call from Dayle's distant cousin (with 2 sons) who is visiting the US from Tasmania. Trying to make contact but she doesn't seem to make advance plans. She's now driving from Florida to Michigan. We're trying to make a date to meet her someplace between. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
