  1. With a bit of warning, I might have got up early and waved at you...
  2. RolyKit boxes come in various styles and sizes - they're handy for keeping small items segregated, especially if working on the move. Each section is covered as it's rolled up, so each compartment is sealed - partitions are supplied to make smaller sections, too.
  3. Apparently, you can use any name to reserve a seat...
  4. Could be the rain - washes the dust off and gives a bit of 'shine'..?
  5. Back on the player again for another week - http://www.rte.ie/player/gb/show/10200190/ .
  6. The don't admit using that codename - https://search.mi5.gov.uk/search?ie=&site=mi5&output=xml_no_dtd&client=mi5&lr=&proxystylesheet=mi5&oe=&q=glenderg&x=-1078&y=-50 .. ..but, I suppose they wouldn't..
  7. They moved it - this should work - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-24364332 .. .. and lucky this chap wasn't coming the other way - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-24367601 ...
  8. Some controversy - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-24361514 ..
  9. Maybe we need to amend the thread title to include cyclists - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-24366745 ?
  10. Right. He has a few in - all at £15 - in the cases. I got the Mulgrew, just to be sure, but it'll do for me, if you don't need it now. The others are:- C=curtainside. Payne Richard Read C Bentons C Downton C Fagan & Whalley C Knights of Old C Turners Richards C McBurney McCulla Prestons Longs There might be some others in the back, apparently.
  11. I'm sure that I've just seen a Mulgrew curtainsider in a shop window near me. He wasn't there at the time and it was a bit dark - there was a note saying one of 2,000. there were a few others as well. I'll try to get a price later.
  12. Any good to you? http://www.buffersmodelrailways.com/content/doc/lib/12654/electrofrog-points.pdf
  13. I thought the finish looked fairly good enough for something that was likely to be old and fairly grubby, with minimal rubbing down - not up to doing a shiny thing yet, though, I do agree.
  14. They could have printed a new tank - and then printed a load of oxygen to fill it with - surely?
  15. Leaps and bounds - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-24329296 .
  16. The soft ones are much more likely to cam out and knacker the recess, though.. A set like this will get a lot of use if you mess about with models and other delicate things. The little torque-bar is handy, I drilled the three larger sizes of screwdrivers in mine to take it, too.
  17. Size 0 fits nicely - but it's worth getting a set, maybe down to 00. Some of the cheaper sets available these days can be a bit soft. I use an old Tandy one that I must have had for at least 30 years...
  18. Found it. [video=youtube;Xm-62z-ksEM]
  19. Great stuff - I see the printed loco on Castlefinn has been painted now..
  20. I'm not, but you certainly hit the ground here running yesterday...
  21. This is my security clip - further modified to hold some solder and so avoid spending ages looking for it. I also put a hole in the cover so that I can see if the LED is lit - the switch is OK, but not the most robust thing I've ever seen.. It should be safe to keep in the toolbox now, without being accidentally turned on.
