Well I thought you'd be working. Plus parents got me going round houses. However I CAN be free tomorrow (tues) if your about. Would have to borrow Matilda as I have no trains with me  :lol:  just a "sheeplugger" in 1:1 scale. I'm on a site on the outskirts of Shrewsbury.

Cheers for all the super pics guys can see what I've missed now  :lol:  Roll on Peterborough!

And Pauly, I do not smell!  :evil:     :lol:
