We did it a week ago Chief, still jet lagged!:curse:

John, Have now finally(?) got this site into 'Favourites' and should have no further problems until this one gets to page 100! I have done busines in London and visited family there, frankly all these cities with their malls centres or what you may call them make me feel like an Ant and just...

John[jefelectric] Found it via your e-mail link. Bookmarked this page and when I try to open it, I get the closed thread [caboose VI]. Am going to try favourites and see what happens? Have started using IE8, the same Gremlins are at it.

BAAAH!! The damned system has screwed me AGAIN!!!

Ha! Made it, The UK is here, The Old Country has finally caught up with you guys

Try not to screw us all up this time and give us an easy link, or something. It took me weeks to get on to this thread after the last change??????:confused:

GREMLINS Lost both my CD/DVD drivers, Had to re-install all my e-mail and internet software. Done a scan it found three gremlins, but there are still a lot of malfunctions. Watch out guys there's something nasty in the ether. I regret to say the beast[s] may be hiding among the forums, because...

Jeffrey, This site has got a gremlin too, talk about run around, I have to go through several pages of gobble-de-gook before I can get into the caboose, at least the spell check works. I know!... several pints Dr Robinsons excellent Elixir are required, sod the pooter and...

Good afternoon all, Just had to quit IE7 {again} another gremlin with it, blasted thing has forgotten how to store my logins for my favourite sites, so it's back to Firefox. I gave up on Outlook ages ago, it's just too complex. Microsoft is getting less and less user friendly. It frightens me...

The nearest we get to grits in UK are Staffordshire Oat Cakes [grits are barley or wheat], they have the flavour of a door mat and need drowning in butter and jam, syrup or honey to make them in the tiniest bit palatable.

GRRRR!!!! The auto log on failed again??? Not much else happening. Some Yank got a load of Chinese medals for something or other?

Good Afternoon, The rain has now become showery in sunny Stockport and the mercury is climbing the glass 20C/68F. ERNI picked up a bug and would not let me log on to this site [kept turning cookies off] , gave him a whack with a shunters pole and rebooted everything. How long this happy...

Crikey! 250 lbs, you must be under tall, you need to be over seven foot for that weight.[BMI 25] I'm 5' 6" 177 lbs [BMI 30], should be 6' 0".:oops: I think I may have to sell Lionel!!! Tell you later.

Chief, I suggest using IE7 when downloading Microsoft stuff, I got XP service pack 3 within a few minutes [I presume you are on broad band]. I suspect there is some skulduggery afoot in the ether as odd things happen with my Firefox/Thunderbird. train97

Brampton a small(ex) mining village between Barnsley and Rotherham in Yorkshire, got flooded in last summers storms. 60103, A Gresley LNER Pacific locomotive built in 1927 as class A3, a rebuild/development of the A10 of 1922, fitted with double chimney and smoke deflectors [alas long gone to...

I'm nearly 70 and have no problems with this site, though I have lost the ability to post photo's, but then I don't have that much going on, what with having no permanent layout. I do have a lot of TrainSim stuff and my ERNI is quite powerful. Is this you Chief?

Greetings from a sunny Stockport, The fuel lorry drivers strike has had one good result, there is less crud dropping on me but the aircraft [I live five miles from Manchester Airport] are still dumping about six tons of soot and unburned fuel onto each mile every day day. KOFF-KOFF!!!... UK...

Bit louder than that, our gas pans out at $10.33 a gallon.:curse: Hey Logicman, are you a retiree? I think I must be? Can't remember last time I went to work, or what I did there. Magnatraction. Hornby had a thing called magnadhesion many years ago, I had a Lord of the Isles loco with this...

Logicman and Baker are siding with the South now? Hmmm, well, I like Grits, so no worries here! Sir James might want to keep a low profile though! Brutus, Funny how our common language leads to misunderstandings! I find our equivalent of grits [oatcakes] are perfectly revolting, like chewing...

If Georges best had not been busy bashing the French in seventeen hundred and wot-not? The US would still be ours. I don't know what we would have done with the Rebs though? Probably bombard them with grits on a frosty night.wall1 Had a great time at Ilkley, a guy was running a Triplex-very...
