Broithe

I picked up the last one in my local Lidl a couple of days ago - civilised enough for light domestic use. I might be tempted to make a flip cover for the spindle-lock button on the top.

The first shots occurred on the railway between Maryborough* and Abbeyleix. *Port Laoise. Stradbally Woodland Railway has had a photo session in relation to this -

Phew!

Artistic licence... This is actually the one that I have, if the picture will help you sleep at night...

Radial shafts off a central spine...

I bought one of these in Prague - must get round to it at some point..

Out of stock at the moment, but it might be worth a ring - http://www.themodelshop.ie/graham-s-resprays-class-2700-2-car-dmu-ie-commuter.html

Fair enough. There's people flogging them on eBay for eight quid and three quid postage - unboxed..!

Fair enough.

The barrel will be charged with Nokia 3510s.

As long as I can choose my weapon and bring my second.

I suspect they are 1/87, but they look well enough and for a couple of quid, I won't argue.

Yeah, leave 'em alone, it's almost the only exercise I get.

Semi-undercover squad car?

The instructions for McCulloch chainsaws used to contain the warning - Chainsaw accidents are rarely trivial.

I got one of those at the 'Abbeyleix' show in Port Laoise last year - a fine device.

Also beware of wire brushes and clothing, particularly cuffs. Even if there isn't a huge amount of power, there can be a good bit of energy stored in the rotating parts and it all happens very quickly.

It's bloody heavy, even the doors are cast. It came over as Lease-Lend, still got the Air Ministry plate on it.

Our local guard's personal mobile ended in 666007 - summed him up perfectly.

Special anniversary edition.

Anyway, the letters would have been upside-down.

Be Prepared! Weren't you in the Scouts..?

Got a return ticket? http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/4229-Going-through-Senior-s-stuff?p=64136&viewfull=1#post64136

Cremation is the general practice over here now - at my local Crem, the last sign that the coffin passes on the way in proudly proclaims that a defibrillator is available - I understand that it's been used three times - on audience members, not the main attraction. Also, if you look up at the apex of the ceiling in the main room, you'll see two smoke detectors...

Looks interesting.
