Robert Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Morning All, Didn't think I would get in first this morning. Having got to bed so late (early) :icon_lol: Oh well - weather is a bit on the grey side this morning. I'm off to vote in a minute when the polling station opens at 8am. Have a good day everyone :icon_wave: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDolfelin Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I got hooked into a Godfather film on TV last night. As is my luck, they played the same reel twice - as if the thing wasn't long enough already. Frosty and Foggy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted February 7, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 7, 2010 Morning all! Sky's clearing up here - looks like another calm Sunday. We may be going out for a walk later today if the weather holds . No parcel yesterday - so maybe tomorrow! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium eldavo Posted February 7, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 7, 2010 Morning All. Plenty of oktas in evidence. Dog walked, coffee drunk, wife away so let's crack on with some work on the trainset. Cheers Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted February 7, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 7, 2010 I just read how a man living about 70 kilometres from my town accidentally threw his family savings into a recycling bank. When he realized his error he first forcibly opened the wrong container before he remembered where he had dropped the money. The police then collected the money for him. However, he will have to replace the locks on both containers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted February 7, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 7, 2010 Hello all. I haven't done much this morning apart from drink tea. I'll take Robbie for a walk later after dropping Matthew at the station. He has decided to go to Games Workshop to play Warhammer today. He hasn't been for ages but some of his friends will be there. I did some railway modelling last night, digging holes for point motors out of the baseboard (easy when you use styrofoam baseboards). Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixoh8sixoh Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Afternoon all. Having a boring Sunday. Paula wanted lots of jobs done but then proceeded to spend more than an hour and a half in B&Q faffing about... Going to get chuff all done at this rate...

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted February 7, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 7, 2010 Afternoon all. Having a boring Sunday. Paula wanted lots of jobs done but then proceeded to spend more than an hour and a half in B&Q faffing about... Going to get chuff all done at this rate... B&Q hasn't always been the easiest of places to shop when accompanied. When Matthew was little he made more fuss about going round DIY places than going to the dentist. I think Mrs S always went in assuming she wasn't going to like anything they sold. I was in trying to buy a jigsaw once and had chosen one but my wife objected that it looked cheap and I should get the more expensive one, ie the Bosch version as it looked nicer. We haven't even taken the dog out yet. I did take Matthew to the station but my wife is catching up after a week away and Robbie has had to wait for his walk until she has chatted to her sister and mother. My mother in law went to India (it is warmer than London at present!)last week. We didn't know where she was supposed to be today so we rang her mobile and had a chat. She is in her eighties but has become quite adept at putting local SIM cards in her phone. Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted February 7, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 7, 2010 Well, we had a walk earlier this afternoon - however, the paths were either wet or covered with slush, so I am quite exhausted now . Dinner will be lasagna, though . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted February 7, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 7, 2010 Ouch... Just read how two young men in Bavaria were building a model rocket, which but exploded when they tried to fuel it. One of the two lost one hand, the other suffered an acoustic shock.

RMweb Gold BoD Posted February 7, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 7, 2010 "I was in trying to buy a jigsaw" Hope it had a picture of a pretty steam train.

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted February 7, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 7, 2010 Mrs Tony_S wanted one that looked nicer - so probably ended up with a cottage scene. In fact Mrs S does like jigsaw puzzles and did buy one (a jigsaw map of New England)while we in the US but she isn't going to start it until she has finished her doctoral thesis, retired and had the gap year she always promised herself. I think she wants to go on one of those Great Glaciers of the World Tours. I'm hoping that she will be content with the Glacier Express by then, or perhaps just jigsaws of Swiss Chalets (her favourite sort of cottage!)

DonBradley Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I have bad news for Andel. The father of the bride does not pay for the wedding ring, the groom does that.

gordon s Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Morning all.... Been up since 4.00am pottering around. Spent the last hour making bits and pieces on the kitchen table. I'll just be glad to get back to a normal nights sleep again... An enjoyable weekend. Caught up with the lads at Alton show but got totally bogged down in the school playing field, which was being used as a car park. I guess no one gave a thought that boggy playing fields and cars don't mix, particularly those with wide, low profile tyres and 350hp to play with.... Thankfully the Hampshire lads, a rope and a friendly 4 x 4 got us out in time for lunch at the pub. Then it was off to Eldavo's to witness the efforts of The World High Speed Modelling Champion.....Good grief, it all happens on Cramdin Yard...

DDolfelin Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Morning all. Another dreary week weatherwise. I may buy a stab proof vest and move to South Africa. I tried a new (to me) make of PVA yesterday. This morning the work (grass in a graveyard) has opened up into fissures and will have to be done again. It is for St Atement over Dew. Never had this problem with Wilkinsons Craft Glue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium skipepsi Posted February 8, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 8, 2010 morning all nose back to the grindstone at least it is a smoke free zone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted February 8, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 8, 2010 Morning all, quite cold outside at -4 and the forecast is predicting additional snow by about Wednesday. Will have to run some errands later on. Looking forward to see the forum move to the new server, having just read it is now fully set up . Later .

Robert Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Morning All, Quite chilly here, and Dominik said. It wouldn't surprise me if we don't get a little bit more snow before the end of the week. I guess we will have to wait and see. I had a pretty good weekend, but there was rather a lot of rushing around involved - I don't think this week at work is going to be a lot different either! I just read how a man living about 70 kilometres from my town accidentally threw his family savings into a recycling bank. Bizarre - one has to ask how he managed to do that! At least he managed to get them back. Have a good day everyone :icon_wave: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDolfelin Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Bizarre indeed. If it had been me I would have heard the copper coins hitting the bin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium eldavo Posted February 8, 2010 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 8, 2010 Morning All, Plenty of oktas in evidence. Network connection from home to work playing up so in office at 8.15! Expect snow from green clouds. I think I may have recycled the family savings... ...into models.

JohnDMJ Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Morning all, Expect snow from green clouds. Just back from my delivery run! Well, Dave, it's snowing all the way from Newbury to here, just need the green clouds now! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
