    Red cloth and beads - essential bartering goods for entering tribal areas.

    Ah, but you had the lure of the Hatters on Kenilworth Road - I had two buses a week to the outside world, if it was still there.

    I did 'live' in Lincolnshire for a while, that was enough for me...

    I have, in fact, never been in Norfolk in my entire life.

    Preiser do a selection of denominations of wedding groups. No issues have been reported. I know this, because I had to be careful to get the 'right side', as an acquaintance of the layout's owner was a CofE vicar, and also a noted participant in the world of radio controlled aircraft. We added a piece of fine wire into the celebrant's bible, to convert it into a transmitter, and had a small plane suspended just off the church tower.

    Mmm, installing steep gradients on model layouts... ...it can be a slippery slope...

    Wandering through the forum whilst having my tea, I initially thought these pictures were shots that you had found and were using for weathering inspiration...

    Getting my second Covid jab - and being stabbed by someone with the same name as me, which must have made the paperwork look odd - I was told "My mother would make you eat a sack of spuds!"

    Hornby, a model world - are we really sure it was about trains? It could have been about Twiggy, the model formerly known as Lesley Hornby...

    You need secondary codenames, like Cheese Slice and Little Drummer Boy.

    I was unaware that I was under surveillance. I've been hiding in the Shed - and I generally have a rather lower profile in morning periods...

    A difficult modelling prospect - the paint job on the piano would be hard enough, but getting a sound chip and a decent speaker into it would be much worse.

    Does anybody here know..?

    Wikipedia says that they included the 'Saxby' name in their title until 1935, so after that, if true.

    Combine two hobbies into one space? It's fairly high at the back, I wonder if they turned the mains off?

    "Years ago", there was 'Metalskin', sort of adhesive foil, that did give a fine effect. I'm not sure if it's still around, Google comes up with all sorts of "matches" that aren't it - the aircraft boys may know? Humbrol also did some 'burnishable' paints, that were pretty good, but took some work to get right, especially on large areas.

    A handy reference for those thinking of populating their carriages.
