Nice stuff :)
And if you want a cure for boredom...try taking A-levels, making an Oxbridge application, and rehearsing for your school's senior play all at the same time, in addition to any railway-related activities you wish to pursue...believe me it will fill up your day very nicely! ;)

Nice to see you trying to get your own back on Cecil, but sadly I don't think you'll ever succeed.

Wish I still had that pic I took of Cecil licking vodka off my laminate wood floor! Haha!

Looks like you had a good Anniversary Steam up Midge! What is the headboard on Cecils Caradoc?

The headboard is the 3rd Anniversary special, made by me on publisher for midge (yep I've learned to do curved headboards!)
