irrs thurs 26th april Hueston station talk railway languages
Broithe replied to waffles's topic in What's On?
I had to give up at that point - I couldn't do 'waggly'... Latin's by no means dead - it's alive enough for people to annoy me almost daily with mis-uses of - tandem, album, stigma, etc.. And, don't get me started on 'telescopic', even if it is Greek - you won't see very far with them shock-absorbers, will you..? -

Latin was almost the only useful thing that I got out of schools after the age of ten - Quantum ille canis est in fenestra? -
Ladders and walkways on the shed look very good - health and safety!..

If the Americans want to speak English then they should have to pay a licence fee, and pass a test - otherwise it's Navaho, or something like that, for them... Just wait until I take over. The lifting bridge is quite do-able - but the slightly raised hinges are an important feature for a successful device.
-
The usual thing is to have the hinges mounted just above the board surface - see the blocks in the picture - this allows the track by the hinges to rise without clashing with the fixed track. The track is cut on the break-line where the door joins the fixed top. A picture of the top of the door when it's open would explain it... Or try http://www.brian-lambert.co.uk/Hints%20&%20Tips.htm#Lifting Bridge Section And, is it Hazelwood or Hazlewood? I think we should be told..

Mmm, I'll think keep my distance if I spot you - there's always the possibility of a back-fire..

He's not that far from the old De Lorean factory - maybe has has special facilities...
-
And with paper chimney pots, too - the sign of the dedicated modeller..

gsm = grams per square metre - an indication of the thickness/stiffness of the card. Available from art shops and the like.

He's only about twenty miles from me. I don't actually know him, but the 'local' shop owner seems to rate him highly..
-
Maybe give Roger a call - http://www.keen-systems.com/page10.html - he's a good chap, by all accounts.
-
He lives in the North - I always find that we have to turn UTV down a notch..
-
Would any of the Keen-Systems stuff be suitable? http://www.keen-systems.com/page2.html

It's poor supervision, really. That's the bonus gone.. Don't worry, only a pedantic bugger would notice it.
-
Would the 'Bus Lane' script not be the other way round, i.e., to be viewed from a bus driving towards it on the left, if you see what I mean?
-
I thought that I remembered him saying that something had come up, but I couldn't find it anywhere.. He'll be along with a note from his Mum soon, I'm sure.

Or just a bag of air and tell 'em it was dehydrated... -
How long before there's one in Portlaoise?
-
If that's your bag, then try 'Hitman' - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068704/ - a 1972 remake of 'Get Carter' in that style, with much of the dialogue verbatim..
-
Let her see the pre-production pictures of the 071 - that's quality time..
-
Tell her it's like dolls' houses, but a bit smaller and some of it moves. It'll make sense to her then, I'm sure *.. * Actually, I'm not, but try it, anyway.

Not long ago he posted this :- It looks like he might not make it..
