The good morning thread

[Andyk]

Morning Mark, morning all....Usk show today which I see a couple of Astons on a stand so may be worth going. Other than that it looks like rain most of the day.

Morning all, back home to find a disabled boy with a bad foot - it is going to be one of those weekends

Morning you lot. Complete failure to change the CPS yesterday. Firstly it's clearly different from the how-to and the part I ordered and secondly, I couldn't get to the damned thing. So off to get a hire car later.

Dinner tonight with some wonderful pals in Brentwood.

Have a great one, all

Morning all, yes he has two new tyres ordered at Kwikfit Lowestoft for today or tomorrow so he doesn’t have to drive home on either of the remaining old ones. I’ll sort the jacking points over the winter and will look for a suitable jack for him.

So today I’m sorting my late father’s workshop and live steam models to give my mother some space on the ground floor along with my brothers and our partners, it will be emotional.

Have fun all...

Morning,

Heading back up north later. No real deadline so can take it easy. Its been good driving the Ghibli all week but boy does it feel large on the narrow roads down here. I need to spend a bit more time getting used to the size and power again before heading off the to IoM in October. Tyres first though.

Have a great day all

Morning all
I bet the blow out caused a few expletives. Well done for holding it though. Now get them all checked and fixed
Lesson learned!

Good morning chaps!
'Twas a pancakes breakfast morning.

Sweet or savoury?

 

[Andyk]

Got to be sweet surely...

 

[Navcorr]

Most of the time

Partial to a ham & cheese - why-o-why do the French insist on using buckwheat though. They think they can make tea as well:

For breakfast, indeed.

 

[2b1ask1]

A great day all in all, cleared a whole corner and set of racks and modified them to take three locos which freed the other side for mother to do her thing and it looks like a forum member is having all the big machines! We weren’t really looking to sell them yet but having us all there together meant we could come to a descison quickly to go ahead.

 

[montravia]

Oh, any other live steam amateur engineers on here?

 

[2b1ask1]

Many engineers, more amateur engineers and even more would be! All lovers of Italian metal...

The diversity of interests and knowledge on here is incredible.

Been fun working with all my brothers today, not happens in near on 40 years! I think possibly since clearing the dead elms from my grans land!
