  1. €200 would see me throwing in my hand and exiting from the table.
  2. Both Rails and Hattons are quoting £145.50 which equates to €162.38 at today's rate. Rails say the full MMRP is £167.5 which equates to €186.95.
  3. Nothing to do with trains but some nice photos from January 2013. Despite the gloom it was before 12 noon.
  4. Some years ago my wife and her sister took their mother shopping. One of the things on the list was a new bra for the mother in law. Anyway the expedition was made, the bra was bought and fitted and the old one dumped in the backseat of the car. There the bra lay in full view of anyone looking in the window. Of course I drove around and parked up for quite sometime without spotting the aforementioned garment. It finally came to light when I was in the local builder provider's yard and I went to fold down the seats. Enough said.
  5. This has been on the go for years. You can see where the chain saw occasionally cuts the cross timbers but I just renew them as necessary. If you look at the "V" you should just make out the carpet gripper. The mainframe always stays intact.
  6. Yep, small outfit who appreciate your custom.
  7. Just thought I would put this up. RB Models in Tipperary still have some Murphy Model 201 class for sale. They have four models, 2x NIR blue and 2x Enterprise livery. It might save someone trawling EBAY if they want one. They are €180 each. I know the interest is on the forth coming "A"'s and 121's at the moment but it might benefit someone. Here is the link. I have no connection at all with the shop but I have bought some locos from them in the past .https://rbmodels.ie/product-category/trains/locomotives/
  8. I have a foldable homemade wooden saw horse. I put lengths of carpet gripper into the "V" section to help grip the wood being sawn. Might be of interest to any DIYers out there
  9. Have been self isolating here and will be for a couple of weeks yet, I've forgotten what female flesh looks like. Anyone else in the same situation and if so any advice you can offer?
  10. Q.What is the difference between the people who live in Dubai and the people who live in Abu Dhabi? A.The people who live in Dubai do not like the Flintstones whereas the people who live in Abu Dhabi do.

  11. You'd be able to move it around to catch the sun..
  12. . . Could be Irish Rail selling off the real thing. Better check before paying. A couple of the real yokes would take up a bit of garden space. I'd love to hear the conversation with the mrs after the bubble wrap came off. .
  13. All I know is that it wasn't the OPEN UNIVERSITY!!!
  14. You know those nudey "educational" films on the internet that you sort of come across by accident? Well that accidentally happened to me and the wife came in (to the kitchen not the "educational" film). "Not much social distancing there." Says the wife. Kind of spoiled the film
  15. https://www.railwaygazette.com/projects-and-planning/dublin-automated-metro-operations-consultant-appointed/55865.article
  16. Thankfully no, but if that is what the virus can do to people.....Imagine having to go into lockdown with a member of your family behaving like that (complete with shirt and maraccas).
  17. Teacher to class. "Can anyone put the word "OSCILLATE" into a sentence?" Reply from student, "The ASAL ate all of the grass in the field".
  18. John Travolta was hospitalized for suspected COVID-19, but doctors now confirm that it was only Saturday Night Fever, and they assure everyone that he is Staying Alive
  19. Eh things ALWAYS sound bigger in metric....
  20. Imagine going on your honeymoon and having to abide by the two metre distance rule...
  21. Garden gauge?
