  1. Somebody's just hit the Custom House bridge - services across it currently suspended for an inspection..

    Derby.

    I should have spotted that - this is one on my favourite videos - of the old days when 'we' were supposed to be scared of 'them'....

    Derby.

    ..and more.. Some nice US stuff. And some huge 1/29th scale US stuff. A slate quarry. Raven's Rock. My favourite - Marsh Chipping - I lived in the Cotswolds in the '60s and this was very well done, really captured the 'feel'...

    Derby.

    Derby today. Not quite as good as previous years and very noticeably fewer people about. Some good things. The usual mix of scales, UK, continental and American. N gauge. ..and from the other end. Oil Drum Lane. Where the Steptoes lived, as I recall.. 3-D TV...? I never did German at school, but it seems quite easy... A German harbour.
  5. Completed early - running through this evening - IR tweets "Bridge works btwn Cork &.Mallow completed early, line reopening, 19.00 & 21.00 Dub-Cork &19.15 Tralee-Cork trains will run through to Cork" .
  6. A 'phew' more comments here - http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/1842-Close-call-video-of-train-collision-near-miss?highlight=phew .
  7. I understand that Abbeyleix is planned for September 14th/15th this year.
  8. The layout has already been started... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/7694255.stm
  9. Bloody hell!! I can't get mine to use a mobile phone....
  10. Some 'action' from 'them'. I wonder if they've also asked for the designs for home-printable stable door bolts to be withdrawn...? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22478310
  11. Just find a twelve-year-old - they'll do it for you.
  12. My Techy Chap says - Sounds like he has some serious malware issue's. Start up in "safe mode with networking". To get the options for this on screen he needs to repeatedly press F8 when switching the PC on. If internet then allows him to connect in safemode, tell him to download and run this one time scanner from Malwarebytes. The web address is http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/mbar/ Hopefully that will help. If he still cant access the internet in safe mode either, then downloading the above and using a memory stick would work to get it onto the required pc from a working one. No guarantees, but this is how I would personally go at it before looking into anything else. I've been using Malwarebytes with Microsoft Security Essentials for a few years, on his recommendation, with no issues at all.
  13. There have been ceramic knives for a good few years, which are enough of a problem, but a widely and easily available non-metallic gun is a very serious security difficulty. Only the firing pin and the cartridge itself contain any metal parts.
  14. 'They' also might be interested in the fact that an operational, non-metallic, 3-D printable firearm has been demonstrated and the design has been downloaded 100,000 times already... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22464360 Must be rather worrying for the airlines...?
  15. I'll start a shed over here and make some efforts in this direction - wouldn't even need a runway then... [video=youtube;Vp0WnZ-4Tqg]
  16. The pictures even look like old photos somehow..
  17. This is truly miraculous..!! I can imagine pilgrimages on a Knock scale - is there room for an airport...
  18. .. you'd be flushed with success if you could get away with it..
  19. A great bit of surveillance. Thanks for the effort.
  20. Somebody also put this one up, on the old site, I think. More Gardaí - but, it also contains a Craven and some beet wagons.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exTsCnrwZGU
  21. I've emailed him to let him know that he's being talked about here. And I would presume that it's Coneyburrow Road - just in case...
  22. People are often more inclined to pay for what they want, rather than what they need.. Any venture is to be welcomed, especially in the current climate.
  23. Interesting. Misr is what the Arabs call the country that we call Egypt - scope for some confusion..? Well, probably safe in Offaly.
