Aldi tool stuff can be pretty good!.. a mate has one of the little cheap inverter welding sets they sell and ( to my surprise) it's great, I've tried it out briefly and compares well to the posh one I use for jobs, albeit not as much power available, but v. good for the money.

Brilliant! Can't wait to see it sitting on the platform, maybe a few chickens wandering about..!
-
The streaky slates look good, I'll have to pay more attention next time I'm up a ladder fixing broken slates, (that i end up doing occasionally) I'll often use little strips of lead to hold up a replaced tile which leaves a small visible 'tab' in the middle of the bottom edge of a tile, probably a bit tiny to do in model form tho it's a common repair bodge on old slates!

You probably need a special Hindu credit card for that...

Brilliant stuff!..couldn't be anywhere else could it !.. -
A nice bequest there, I particularly like the Donegal railcar..

Proper sunlight really brings the grass to life....tho taking the board out in the rain for that authentic Irish effect may not be such a good plan !

I bet a few commuters dropped their Costas coffee when that one "arrived" at London Charing Cross..

Broithe's pic reminded me a bit of this one from BR ( sorry to "derail" ) ....

Thanks for the heads up gents, the Mrs has been re arranging the rooms upstairs ( again!) ... so bearing the above in mind I went up and did a quick 'safety inspection' and moved a couple of glass items etc with a dire warning to be aware in future !

Ahh now, his mistake there was he should've smeared a load of plaster all over his face...
-
Ahh 50 shades of grey is also some fillum I believe ( you can tell I don't watch many.!) Maybe it's quiet as folk are off on their holidays, tho its maybe a bit late for that now..
-
Brilliant! Some of the pics on there convey (to me) a feeling of bitter cold that's really tangible..
-
I love the scene with the ship, where's it from / who did it ?
-
Looks like Sister Angelica needs a pair of reading glasses, bless her..!
-
Myself I quite like the idea of making no7, the big old one with the long snout..tho I've got a few projects to finish before thinking about yet another..! Hope the Donegal lads have some useful info anyway, I'd also be interested to see what they turn up if so...
-
Yes I thought it would likely be the other one you wanted...that seems to be the one I can't find any pics of at all !
-
If it is the ex CVR Donegal no10 you want I've got 7mm scale drawings btw..
-
But at least you had a stout top hat to keep the rain off..!

I think that's ex CVR articulated railcar that was re named no10 when moved to Donegal in the 40s, I've got a couple more pics of that in a book I can photograph if required, but I suspect you might mean an earlier railcar bearing same number?

The old horse I had could get over a lot of places I wouldn't attempt with the land rover !
-
3 ¹/² some of the old donkeys I've known....

I wonder if they do Father Brown on his bike...?
