    Obviously, the live-steam turf-burner will have been bumped up the list by the news that Bord na Mona are not going to be holding stocks of the necessary material for the required microsods for much longer.

    This could be handy as 'evidence', for when you run out of blue while painting the back scene...

    A little-known fact is that the meatballs served in IKEA cafés are actually made from customers who failed to find their way to the exit.

    I remember a game show where people were invited to update old proverbs. "As mad as a... ...phone-in caller."

    It seems to me that points are the issue - flexi-track wouldn't be hugely difficult, really 'simply' a matter of producing a suitable sleeper base and threading rail into it, much as Peco already do. Of course, people would want wooden and concrete sleepers.

    In Stafford, the only recently demolished Bagnall's factory built "Isabel", who stood outside the station entrance for many years, being clambered over by the local urchins. She was eventually subjected to a botched 'restoration', before finally being returned to steam at Amerton Railway, out on the Uttoxeter Road, Part of the old Stafford-Uttoxeter Railway, from near the WCML junction, north of the station, to where it enters an MOD site, is a 'greenway' now and named the Isabel Trail, although she would have struggled on the 4'8½" track...

    A Brisfit is nearly five metres wider than a Dr1, though it may be a bit more directionally stable. A lot of us will have made the old Airfix 'Dogfight Double'. I can't find a picture with the Dr1's top wing properly visible, but an idea of the diminutive size of the Fokker in comparison to the Bristol is clear here.

    There was a full-length concert on a Waterford train. Featuring a driver on the 'opposite' train joining in a 'dance' section around twenty minutes in.

    Richthofen brought down Lt Bird's Pup - you could have recreated that. They seemed to get along OK afterwards, though.
