Does that make it a "Manly Man" beer? Pirate [oX)] Pirate [oX)] Pirate [oX)]

Of course my french is so bad it could say a fish dish with wine sauce Dinner [dinner]Chef [C=:-)]

Sorry, but the words French & beer just dont go well together, like German & humor, British & dental-hygene, or Russian & high-tech... Laugh [(-D] Laugh [(-D] Laugh [(-D]

Nonsense!  Why, I have done some of my finest track laying after a drink or two.

John,

I would say have those brews while working; it'll be much more enjoyable!

Good luck to you; have fun. 

It's the microbrews here in Idaho - - yum!

Good news folks,

I am starting my new layout tonight!

I am doing the Atlas HO-15 which is called the  Minium-sixe twice around.

230 dollars at the hobby shop and a couple of Budweisers and I am underway.

Wish me luck and I will post my progress later.

Thanks for your  advice John Galt.
