Combine them all as an Eccles Cake factory. Its gritty oop North!

I'm sure I've seen a UK tv ad for adult literacy support along the same lines, that provided a telephone number and web address for further information, but neglected to read them out...

Last nights dream involved viewing unsuitable houses for sale and a Flemish Giant rabbit. I woke up before matters were resolved... Grey and dampish outside but calm. According to the BBC weather app, it should be sunny! Cross checking, the Met Office app reports cloudy all day...

I've just indicated my choices... Of course, if all of them were to be produced, I'd probably only be able to afford the least expensive!

Hmmmmmm.... I've had a run of strange dreams recently. Are they catching? Are there a lot of them about? Anyone else?

The ones I remember were those by Mike Sharman. He had some fine Bloomers too!

Thats the ambiguity....

And its a very much shrunken copy of the 7mm scale pewter model by Bachmann.

So much is wrong for a mail coach... 😁 We had Hattons on the ropes yesterday, today its Rails... https://railsofsheffield.com/products/pre-owned-thomas-friends-murdoch-2-10-0-steam-locomotive Hornby R9684, so its probably loco drive rather than tender drive. Only £1095.00 I think they do delivery free at that price... There's a fair number of Thomas locos on offer. https://railsofsheffield.com/collections/pre-owned?q=thomas&sortValue=2

My god! Its EXPLODED!!!

At the very start of the war, the government only let the RAF drop leaflets over Germany...

A Birmingham Grand Prix based around the Gravelly Hill Interchange would be most entertaining.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaghetti_Junction,_Birmingham

It couldn't have happened to a more deserving bloke! Oh wait... She could have been on Jim'll Fix It. 🤪

Looks like it.... @MrWolf The wheels are not so much "bacon slicer" as they're not sharp enough, I'd say more "steamroller"!

With that number of moves, perhaps you should invest in a few more locomotives as spares...

See my post above about the delivery of parallel pieces of nickel-silver, and the Net Nannys censoring of d0ng. I think she's been on the gin again.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gin

I'm sure the RAF had no qualms....

That was when there was only 23 letters in the alphabet, when there was no "L" and before "U" and "I" were invented... Don't you love the old ones? 🙃

I wasn't paying that much attention...

Looking at the weather, I'd fail at the first tickbox...

Ding-D0ng!!! My parcel of parallel pieces of nickel-silver arrived courtesy of Royal Mail at 8:27am, after passing through a "site" and two named facilities. A good thing I was up and ready to face the day....

I once had a delivery from a courier that had a picture of the parcel on my doorstep. This was all well and good, apart from the minor fact that IT WAS NOT MY DOORSTEP... It turned out that the driver was carp at using his satnav and had delivered to the right house number, but in a road with a completely different name. Took ages to sort out!

What is often Not Mentioned is the part that IBM played in the organisation of the Holocaust. IBM Germany provided all the background accounting machinery that enabled the efficient administration of the Final Solution. IBM USA continued to supply their German organisation with machinery, spares and other technical support until Germany declared war on the USA. IBM Germany then carried on supplying accounting services until the end of the war. There's a book about it. IBM and the Holocaust
