  1. I was only talking about this - http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/1416-New-Recruit!!?p=21672#post21672 - to somebody yesterday. I wonder how progress is faring? Most of Irish industry is near the coast - it's not like the UK with Birmingham, Leeds, Sheffield, etc., all well inland and needing servicing by land transport..
  2. The RAF was still flying the lovely Shackleton into the '90s - virtually a modified Lancaster.
  3. It's hard to beat a bit of Betjeman. Plenty more on there..
  4. Might be worth siting the compressor in the draught of a fan - if you have a spare one about...
  5. This is quite a good spoof article.. http://newsthump.com/2015/02/19/eu-asks-russia-if-it-would-like-to-invade-greece-instead/
  6. Back again tomorrow, apparently.
  7. They're back - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-31530840 .
  8. No USB, that's too old hat - it has a direct optical connection - straight into the retina. That 'little pulley' is for the height adjustment - there is considerable allowance for wear. I you ever get one, then remember to not have your feet on the footrest when lowering the board - but, you'll only do it once....
  9. These dogs they're to let loose, have they been chipped..?
  10. I'm still running my old Dargue Simplon - analogue, but it works OK and is unlikely to wear out soon.. ..well, not before I do..
  11. Well, some of us are prepared to drag it back a bit...
  12. Patience is the key... ..and not being tempted to put actual ammonia in them..
  13. I don't know, I've just been lucky, I suppose..
  14. Plenty available - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_number Handy for use when stacking Guinness barrels.
  15. A fresh start - the layout is dead, long live the layout...
  16. I'm so glad to hear that - I 'moderate' another Forum and, whenever I spot a double entendre, I always whip it out immediately.
  17. Hopefully, they all came down singly... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKo2Nm9ZO0Q
  18. I think that he's actually holding that - it is the scabbard of his sword-stick, I believe. And, here you can see how it works - and..... ..she's definitely wearing a mini..
  19. I also like the 22s, although I didn't really want to. The Voyagers, or Vomitters as they are generally known over here, are truly hideous in every way.
  20. No TGVs into Ballybrophy for a while yet...
  21. Tu-95s were accompanied by Il-78 tankers - refuelled off Norway, apparently. A picture from a similar event last November. There's also talk that they were accompanied for the early stages by MiG 31s.
  22. I bought the Model Rail Dapol Sentinel that came through Kernow - it was here in fifteen hours.
  23. Could even be Adam Adamant - for those that remember in black and white.
  24. Mmm, I was just wondering if the cavalry ever got issued with zebras....

    The Church

    Father Jack, in his chair, seems to have had some sort of make-over..?
