Good to hear from you Rod - the weather is warming so you'll soon be able to be solar powered out in the garden
Take it easy
Cheers
Mark

Re: Now....what should i do with this?
On arriving home tonight after being away with work, I found this months Garden Rail magazine - and inside on page 34, Meteor stars across a number of pages I thought I'm famous then I noticed Phil had got me down as Mark Hill instead of Hirst - the Hill in Castle Hill Light Railway must have distra...

Re: Welcome to the CHLR
Cheers Jim - its nice to be back, albeit in design phase (and building a shopping list for Peterborough)
Your offer of the Dais is very kind - once we start cutting sods I'll give you a shout to send them up... and if we need any fields clearing of sheep!

Re: Cleaning after using super glue
I too suffer the "one-use" problem with the tubes of superglue, however I bought these back in June - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B006PFN3BW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I am only half-way down the first bottle, I don't do anything special, but I think...

Re: Welcome to the CHLR
Ok – as promised, here’s the backstory for the soon to be built (fingers crossed Brexit releases its grip on the housing market soon) Castle Hill Light Railway v2, the Yorkshire sequel! For the record this is a story that mixes real places with fictional people - any similarities you might spot to r...

Re: Welcome to the CHLR
Cheers Tom - we should compare diaries for a Kent meeting at some point this summer - based on the latest vote in Parliament tonight concerning the B issue, I don't see the housing market picking up anytime soon

CHLR Mk2 update
Hi everyone – you’ll have noticed I dropped off the radar for many months – sadly my house move has dragged on (we are still have our house in Kent – our sale isn’t moving despite a sizeable price drop - blooming Brexit ) but I was lucky enough to get a new job in Manchester starting in November. Th...

Re: (WH)WHR Buildings
Craft knives can indeed be lethal. I was once hospitalized (outpatient) courtesy of Swann- Morton. The safety cover was a piece of plastic heat crimped on to the blade and Dingbat here tried to remove the cover by using my thumbnail against the cover with some force, thinking that I was applying pr...
