Thanks guys - Al, I'd like to "pick your brains" about fitting R/C, so expect a PM soon, and Chris I can't tell you how fed-up I am at missing the trip this weekend (I've picked up a secondary infection, so even if the finances allowed, I couldn't go :cry: )

Sorting through the photo's from wednesday, and here's another "shed shot"

Welcome to my world mate, going on a year now with infections :(

You have my upmost sympathies Pauly!
I made the (wrong) assumption that the "recovery time" the hospital told me was over generous. Seems that even the little activity I've done was too much, too soon and I'm now paying the price :cry:
(My nose is so blocked I can hardly speak, and my legs feel like lead today!)

Amusing myself with the photo's though....

Back to playing with photo's for now..... it's safer! ;)

Love the industrial train scene - very atmospheric.

Is that a giant's shoe in the dirt, bottom left corner?

:lol:  Certainly looks like it - I had to check with the "colour version" to see exactly what it is, and it turns out to be a fallen leaf.
It seems I'm making a hash of everything today! :lol:

The Earl in "The Alley"

I couldn't take photo's here before because of the fence in the background - I think the new wriggly tin warehouse has hidden it quite nicely ;)

You would not believe the number of photos of my line that have faithfully captured the likeness of "a little present from Fido" in the corner of the shot. Much as I love dogs, some of their habits are a bit disconcerting. As for the pine needles it is near hopeless!

I thank you sir :D

Here's what that movement was all about - the IP Engineering Jessie has now been outshopped from Pentrich Sidings sporting her new paint job and radio control (which worked first time!!! :D )

:lol: Actually only two ;)  
One Mamod (but in two liveries and different modifications),

and now the Jessie, but just for the record, "Myfanwy" has also been used twice - first the Baldrig
Image

and now the Kerr Stuart
Image

but "Marion" is on the third outing having been on a Locolines Hunslike,
Image

Andel Baguley
Image

and now a Jamod :D

(and if Tom's reading this, Marions dome is now black ;) )

Only just caught up on this thread, the new paint job on Ogwen is lovely! Looks jolly smart.

And brilliant photos as ever!

I had to do a double take on the last photo, I thought you had found a old slide! Wow!
