    They are in Box Tunnel. Didn't you know?

    All of his other items appear to be scans of copyright material too.
  3. Did you celebrate by going out and painting the town yellow?
  4. Near Northallerton 'The Cat and Bagpipes'. Can't see the connection myself.
  5. The Mexican government have decided to get their own back on Trump. They are going to build a ladder.
  6. I have just listened to a radio advert saying that I can have a smart meter fitted 'entirely free of charge'. I have recently read that npower quoted the cost of supplying smart meters as one of the reasons for their recent price hike. Did they honestly believe that their customers/the electorate would be fooled by the 'free meter' offer?
  7. Claudio Ranieri has just been given a vote of confidence and the club's full backing. Now, what is it that usually follows that?
  8. The cough linctus that works best for me is a whisky and Crabbies green ginger wine. There is maximum number of doses that you can take in a day but by the time you reach it you sleep well anyway.
  9. Mornin all. Glad that your terriers are back home. People seem to spend a lot of time these days breeding dogs called Cockerpoos and Labradoodles. We just used to call them mongrels. I wonder why no one has thought to cross a bulldog with a shihtzu.
  10. Morning all A bit frosty this morning, I've just had to de-ice the car. Well if Mrs BoD is going to work to help keep me in models it is the least I can do.
  11. Perhaps we should stop being polite and just call them di heads.
  12. That link didn't work for me but I know what you mean. Once a fan always a fan. You can try to ignore your team, you can try supporting other teams, you can pretend you don't like football at all and watch other sports, but the team that you first support is forever in your heart and their ups and downs are your ups and downs.
  13. If it wasn't for Liverpool Sunderland would be out of the bottom three.
  14. I will be there, all being well.
  15. Come come, my man. This is a railway forum. Was it a single slip or a double slip?
  16. Dying seems to be an expensive business all round. I have repeatedly told Mrs BoD that as far as I am concerned she can just put me in one of the bins. She asked whether I should go in the one for recycling or the one for landfill.
  17. One for this year and one for next. Good thinking.
  18. Good morning. Here's hoping that Sherry is soon able to chase nurses and Ian refrains from doing so. Today will be mainly spent creating 2 aspect signals. As they are only for the fiddle yard, to indicate to the operator which train to set away (when running in automatic or semi-auto mode), I can't decide whether to give them a prototypical look or just clag a couple of LEDs on lollipop sticks. Have a good day, whatever you are up to.
  19. It's in the same dictionary as Eastwood Town finished.
  20. Andy, we need a ' don't believe you' button.
  21. Very thoughtful of them to put it on a kneehole desk with drawers to file your papers on either side.
  22. In the early days of the BBC micro we bought a load of spreadsheet and word processing programs that came on ROM chips. These had to be physically fitted in every machine (I'm sure you remember these Tony). Later, during an audit, in spite of being told that these chips had been fitted in lots of computers across the school, they insisted on seeing every chip. They were obviously unaware of what this actually involved. Once they twigged that each machine had to be dismantled just for them to see a little black chip they soon wanted to accept that the others existed. I made damned sure they stayed to see the lot.
  23. Don't forget, the good Captain is an expert in theses matters. His Bachelor and Master's degrees were in Sausiology. He's clever, he's got an ology. His PhD thesis was on The History of Cornish Suasage Mines which was also his specialist subject on Mastermind. He could probably teach these lawyers a thing or two.
  24. Good to hear from you Sherry Take care of yourself....... ....... and your new bits.
