Hi guys,
Just to let you know I'm still around, one of my favourite shots from the summer. Hope everyone's keeping ok.

Hi Kim
Afraid not have a stinking cold Sniff!!!
But it has stopped the honey do list long enough to try my new toy a Woodland Scenics hot wire cutter.
Pain about not having the energy to lay the last 9 blocks on the wall that will stop the railway falling into the neighbour's garden so I can start moving into the great out back (back garden) with the railway.
Received from the UK some very nice etched brass station name boards for NUFFIN which will only be the name board.
Trains all be it small ones will now go beyond the BLACK STUMP haven't worked out the best way to do a platform for that one yet.
Any way back to the new toy and whats being made because I need some help.
Have you got any pictures of them almost triangular shaped cottages?? I think?? the proper name for them is Cruck Cottages???.
Seemed like an easy one to do with the new cutter and some foam which it would be if I knew what I was making a Cold and not so fresh memory don't work to well together.
regards John
That's good news! Glad to have you back. I was thinking Vikings sacked your villiage and burned your railroad or some other disaster.
I like the progress you've made over the summer, good work!

Have fun with your trains
Hey Kim,
Greetings from another who is "still around". Had a good Summer. Even had an open house. Not much else to report...getting rather cold here now. Hoping the snow will hold off for another month or so...might be wishful thinking. Glad to see you back! Later eh...Brian.
Nice photo.
Somewhat to a court's shagrin, I'm still around too
Thanks everyone, done quite a bit of work on the back garden this year - and the railway of course. I don't know what cottages you mean John, new name on me, which part of the country are they from? Took delivery of an Aristo Mikado today and just got time to clean the track and run it for half an hour before the rain came in - wonderful! Still very mild in the UK, in fact shrubs etc are still flowering and the grass growing, if this is winter then ...... oops, sorry Brian!!
Cheers,
Gentlemen;
It is good to hear from ll your old contributors, i have missed you all.
