Definatly agree on that one, indeed I almost ran Gwydion (my Millie for those that don't know) but the sun went in, the tempreture dropped and I decided I didn't fancy it, especially as parts of my line needed clearing of leaves as well :x
Nice pics Pauly, good to see Torak running well

I wanted to go outside to play with my Willi... :? let me rephrase that... I wanted to go outside to run my live steam Regner locomotive, but it's been chucking it down all afternoon :cry: And it was sunny this morning but I was doing work.

Nice photos - I LIKE the GWR-style safety valve bonnet (better than mine!)

Very nice the plants are creeping across nicely :D 8)

I ran some Diesel services whilst tidying up the old garden yesterday during a surprisingly bright spell of weather.
Had hoped to invite a couple of local yokels but the lawn was like a sponge and I would have faced serious consequences had I had people round who then duly trod mud into the house ! lol

I wanted to run my Kerr Stuart but I can't until I get a new switch, a railway to run it on & some rolling stock
