RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted January 21, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 21, 2018 Dunno, I was thinking of the accident with the lady Spit 21C166 (the first big loco I bought with my own pocket money from the Pram & Toy Shop in Midsomer Norton for the princely sum of £25 - GWR 101 Holden Tank was the first bought in St Helier C.I. - both of which I still have) Don't know nuffin' about this Dartmouth business guv. Sorry, yes of course I knew that. Lady Lewisham, a leading political figure of the time, became Countess of Dartmouth 50+ years ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted January 21, 2018 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted January 21, 2018 My Spit is just a heap of carp wot I buyded on that ####### auction site. Probably needs a new Decoder hard wired and I think the back to backs are rubbish as well. If that fails I shall move it on. Achtung. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold unravelled Posted January 21, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 21, 2018 Now I've remembered "Shackles away Samuel", wherever that was from, however I still can't remember the Fireball XL5 phrase as they were about to take off or something. Maybe it wasn't that programme? Perhaps it was Supercar? P I think "Shackles away Samuel" was a regular line from "It's a square world", followed by a clip of a lifeboat launch, (Swanage I think). A great shame that almost no recordings survive. Btw, "the reluctant jester", Michael Bentine's life story, is currently on radio 4 extra./iplayer Well worth a listen.
