Beer has gluten in it unless it is gluten free beer (usually made in Belgium) and then it tastes like #### :nono:  probably because it is made from old Saxophone cases or something?

So, this evening I have been fiddling with my Walrus (to keep my mind off the playoffs) and have noted that my existing one should have two big ones and 4 small ones; one big and 2 small each end. That's interesting isn't it.

(Oh look it's 2 -1 to the Greens @ HT).

Sorted one big one but the other will have to wait 'till tomorrow.

I have 2 BR Walrus and 4 ex SR 40T Hoppers (later also named 'Walrus'). The ex SR ones have 6 small ones; three each end. They also have different Bogies.....yea.

My existing Walrus is a BR one and so tomorrow I might start the other BR one and use the existing one as a vis aid. I CBA to repost the pic of it but I did enjoy weathering the thing. Each of the six will have its own distinctive look of grot. Such fun. 

I'm too old to cope with the stress of the Playoffs so I am going to get some Brandy and try to ignore the time.

More tomorrow (not Brandy........well maybe)

Ahh! Finest Bavarian beer (not wishing to rub it in.... Mind you !) I'll drink it on your behalf mate :)

You enjoy your brandy, nice on coco-pops I've been told as a breakfast boost !

 

Yours

A good curry normally helps with the first one, or is being jet propelled cheating? :scratchhead: :stinker:

 

A good curry should subsequently provide an excellent opportunity to practice the art of 'doing a Boris Johnson' - 'better out than in'.

Sorry to disappoint but it is my secret way of criticising the Capitalist System, as did Lewis Carrol and Mr Lennon, both of whom were severely affected by 'substance abuse', as I am. It began last week when I spilt* that Humbrol Liquid Poly.

P.S. How's your point wiring going?

Well ducky, when you came out from behind the sofa you will have noticed that argyle came away from Fratton Park not too badly off. Sunday might not be too awful.

Don't say "choke"

 

Do say "We had a great season and played excellent football"

 

Don't say "how did we let automatic promotion slip through our fingers"

Won't spoil it, enjoy.

 

PS: I have the box set (much to the annoyance of those around me).

Good evening. It became apparent today that each of my Walrus wagons is going to be slightly different. Not unlike the prototypes then! There will be 4 ex SR and two BR versions. The 'differences' will be due to construction 'techniques' and, of course, the bogies on the two BR versions are different to those on the ex SR wagons.

Today I sorted the other 'big one' on the existing wagon; long brass pin and plastic wheel from the kit. I have some lovely etched hand-wheels, however they are all small versions. Those have been made up already and that's how I know that the brass pins are easier to use than the kit supplied wire (well I think so).

I am building up stamina to get back in the loft next week, by relaxing with some kit building and research. (Means I do not have to think about trickery for a few days.)

I suspect that could be a Falcon Brass version. If so, DL needs (needed) a b***y medal for making that go together.

Shall I offer them £9.99 and see what response I get?  Too late or I can't find it.
