Hi all <br /> <br />Not much happening here, mostly revising (have two exams left, then university is over). Main worry is the current lecturer's industrial action – they're refusing to mark coursework or exams so whether my year will get any results remains to be seen. I suspect in the event people not graduating due to unmarked work we'll see a slew of lawsuits against both the universities and the lecturer's unions, rightly so to my mind – we can't do anything about their complaints (pay, as usual), so why are we the ones who suffer? <br /> <br />Peter, fine here thanks, how's things at your end? I'll have to have a rummage for some Russian train photos on the web – so far the Bachmann Chinese stock all appears to be very recent builds so it looks only vaguely similar to the Russian equipment, certainly not close enough for a bit of kitbashing. The coaches they offer look almost European as opposed to the old corrugated-side Soviet-era stuff. <br /> <br />John, it's now pelting down here again – clearly we got our monthly ration of sun over the weekend! <br /> <br />Rob, interesting story regarding the loose pets, there's been more than a few reports of “big cats” seen in the wild over here, not sure how accurate they are as no concrete evidence exists beyond a few shaky videos. Theory is that they escaped or were quietly released when new laws made it illegal to keep them without a license. Personally I can see how a few leopards/panthers/whatever could survive in the wild, they're usually seen in farming areas and a few sheep going missing wouldn't attract much attention. <br /> <br />Bye for now <br />
