WRENNEIRE

On the first day, God created the dog and said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years." The dog said, "That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?" And God saw it was good. On the second day, God created the monkey and said, "Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life span." The monkey said, "Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty long time to perform. How about I give you back ten like the dog did?" And God, again saw it was good. On the third day, God created the cow and said, "You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer's family. For this, I will give you a life span of sixty years." The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?" And God agreed it was good. On the fourth day, God created humans and said, "Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years." But the human said, "Only twenty years? Could you possibly give me my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back, and the ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?" "Okay," said God, "You asked for it." So that is why for our first twenty years, we eat, sleep, play and enjoy ourselves. For the next forty years, we slave in the sun to support our family. For the next ten years, we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren. And for the last ten years, we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone. Life has now been explained to you. There is no need to thank me for this valuable information. I'm doing it as a public service. If you are looking for me I will be on the front porch...

Just let me check.....

Any pics of the container?

Economics!

Dont really know where to post this so I will stick it here Due to someone dropping out, he is an essential worker and cannot change his shift. Is there anyone interested in a free helicopter flight tomorrow? Must have and bring their passport! Will be leaving at 8.10am from Dublin and first fly direct to Galway Airport where we will have breakfast and enough time for a bit of shopping for the ladies and beer for the blokes . Afterwards we fly to Ballyglunin where we will take photos and measurements of “Castletown Station” as used in the John Wayne and Maureen OHara film, "The Quiet Man". Then up to Cong to take some pics of the pub and to enjoy lunch and a bottle of fine wine or two. Later on in the afternoon we will then fly over to Downpatrick to check out the stock on display and have a personalised tour of the facility. The up to Belfast for an evening dining alfresco before flying back to Dublin and hopefully land around midnight. If you are interested, please comment - preferably only someone with a helicopter, as that is the only thing I'm missing.?

Any use?

Killing some time on a wet August afternoon and I found this letter from the late Kevin Hutchinson He traded as Abbey Models and was one of the first dealers to supply MM/Lima products Kevin used to attend the Clontarf shows back in the day with his lovely wife Catherine Anyway have a look at some of the products that were being advertised at the time, March 2001 And have a look at the prices! L105501 became L105500X5, River Tolka set L105502 never made it out of Italy, unfortunately L149437 made it out, the River Bandon set L149438 No show. L149439 Escaped as L305340(#7403) This number was used on the original Galway set of coaches. L149440 Didn't make it out. Pity a 2 pack of NIR Mk2's including a dining car L204790 The class leader, #201 River Shannon L205018 #217 River Flesk L205019 #206 River Liffey L205021 #208 River Lagan L205022 #208 NIR Blue L205023 #209 NIR Blue

The 3 Accessory Packs IRM 1090KEG The 5 cages are numbered differently to the ones on the 42' flats 9317, 9452, 9548, 9788 & 9836 IRM 1091CIE20 The 2 Containers are numbered differently to the ones on the 42' flats 22021 & 22024 IRM 1092FERT

2 different suppliers but hopefully the decoders will be here around the same time

I think they might be the only ones, I remember reading about a company called Calvex I think, who announced they were to produce some 4mm ones "for the discerning modeller", along with a Class 91. They do produce a 2mm version but I haven't heard anything since

Very interesting about the turntable lads, good spot. New to me, never heard of a powered turntable

Should have one knocking about, I will give you a shout when I check the spares box

Exactly, it has to do with the amount that can be packed on a pallet, 126 box's I think

The usual 504 of each model

Spoils, 4 Packs, ABCD Pack A IRM 1070A #30128 & 30173. IRM 1071B #30121 & 30130 IRM 1072C #30134 & 30180 IRM 1073 D #30106 & 30131

I believe the prototype of the 3rd class is in the UFTM in Cultra?

Micro Rail had a 6 wheel Full Brake & a 3rd LNWR coach kit that was recommended as DNGR donors Although the Wolverton built Irish coaches were 6' wider they were very close to the real thing, (#4 - 6 & 14 - 16)
