Andrew P Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Don't worry Jeff, to kill some time between now and KL2 you can give me some speeeeling lesons (humor?) :stinker: . We will be doing battle for the ratings in 2016 when track starts to appear on KL2 and I decide where I will be living, possibly a caravan on your drive :nono: , ahhah I could always put a sleeping bag under Bacup, but I don't know where Dee and Sally (the Greyhound) will sleep. hhahee Bodge Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
67A Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Hi Jeff, Well I thought you were slightly mad when you were making the stone walling, now, the post about enjoying the 'digging' really needs proper professional investigation. I know its been quiet on KL, Kingsley and Dent, we have all had things to do eh! Life's a bi**h. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its been quiet on KL, Kingsley and Dent, we have all had things to do eh! Life's a bi**h. It probably does seem a bit crazy, but I really like digging out the trenches, mixing the concrete and then getting on and building the walls. Here's a couple of pics from 2002 as I started the raised beds in my current garden.... Jeff 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then all the scenic stuff will come along - and take years. Great fun! Don't tell Dee of your plans or you'll be exiled to the dog's kennel!!

67A Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Hi Jeff I know its quiet so just thought I would let you (all) know that a few of my 'private members railway club' are coming around to my den tonight. I have great plans to get my electrical genius to work on a stubborn single slip problem, another on cleaning wheels, the last on cleaning track in readiness for the big day, all whilst I supervise hehehe. Chances are though that nothing will get done and we will talk trains all evening by the glow of that wonderful woodburner! Nice walling by the way!

Evening Mike. I love bricklaying. The raised beds in the new garden will be built using the same brick as the house and pics will be duly forthcoming when I start. As for a railway club.... I suspect that if Jason ever expected any serious assistance on Bacup when Bodge and I visited, it wouldn't happen. Playing and talking are far more fun!!

Bodge Your mention of 3 links has got me inspired again! I had fun last night trying to explain the joys of shunting (locos, that is!! ) to a friend of mine. She kept shaking her head and didn't see the attraction. I'll see if I can convert her (to shunting, re, erm...) once I have a working Goods yard.

RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted April 4, 2014 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted April 4, 2014 I spot Michael lurking on the thread! Nice to see you on here, though KL in its original form disappeared 4 months ago and the last 50 pages have been a real mix. Hope all is well!

You could just sit back and run trains, hahhaha Bodge I can quite easily get my other half interested and indeed involved which is great, she's made trees for me, she's made an allotment, she's weathered some stonework and did several other tasks on my old Chestergate & Milne layout............BUT............then the orders came....do this do that do the other..........so it ended up with DO ONE! Only joking, my wife is actually quite good with the scenery and detail, I just like trains and would be nowhere with any scenery if Laura did not push me at times. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted April 4, 2014 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted April 4, 2014 Mike, I'm glad to hear that your other half takes a positive interest in your work. It's always good to have a second pair of eyes giving an objective view on our work. There are times when we get so focused on specifics that the overall "sweep" of a project can be forgotten. That's one reason why I decided to build KL/KL2 in the public eye. The comments made by dozens have people have only helped to improve what I've produced.
