How was your day?
Re: How was your day?
Hey Allan, not much to tell on my end, buying more kits I don't really need, and printing stuff for them.
Still look in here once or twice a week, but I think life has gotten in the way of everyone at the moment.
Glad to see you're still so active, showing the younger generations up a bit.
How are you trucking along, keeping ahead of the black dog?

Re: How was your day?
Hi Bear, I going Ok been doing a bit with my Art been working on a Oil painting between doing that and a taking photos of trains helps me keep ahead of the black dog.
Ya life has keeping everyone busy these days.
My main interest these days is my HO trains got to do some more to my layout, Did run the big Santa Fe with some passenger cars on the Museum's layout last Sunday the Diesel derailed on a join in the track that we need to fix, Run the 38 with the same cars, have posted photos of them both.
Did find two of my Passenger cars sit to high and the couplers keep undoing so will be fixing them, Also got four TAM passenger Cars on lay-by hope to get them out next week, the TAM cars have six wheel bogies under them were others have four.
Have not bought any new kits only a Die-cast 2000 Thunderbird.

Re: How was your day?
It was a ice cold day here yesterday and a ice cold night this morning it's cold again and the knuckles in my hands are burning with the cold and hands are half open time to put gloves on.
Hope you are all well and Ok too.
Did I say I hate the cold.

Try and keep warm Al, keep your gloves on!!
Been busy as busy. Had 8 weeks off work and only manage to build the Mega Unicorn and 2 and a 1/2 HGs. I have finished weathering the MG Gelgoog build. Just waiting to get photos of that one.
Bought some more model building stuff but jinx myself!! I chipped my God hand nippers kinda misusing them so I bought some red ones and dropped and broke my original pair. So now I own 3 God Hand nippers

Re: How was your day?
Will be watching for photos of your builds.
What are God Hand Nippers.
The weatherman said today was going to be the coldist day but yesterday was colder with the strong ice cold NW wind racing down the valley the NW wind was lighter today and not as cold out side even inside now it's a nice.
Funny how it turns out when I was younger I run around bare footed on frosty ground and now first sign of cold weather I wrapping myself up
