<p>Good Afternoon, gang!</p> <p>This is day 2 of our hunt for a place for my parents to live. While not really bad, the place we looked at today lacked that extra bit of care which makes the difference between good and very good. From the impression we got, yesterday´s place would be Petra´s and my choice. "Unfortunately" today´s "instutue" has an apartment available in September....</p> <p>It is past lunchtime but too early for tea, so I´ll just have a coffee, please, Flo!</p> <p>I have stopped w*rking on my modules for the time being, but just as long as i am undecided about that storage issue. Storing the modules in form of a layout which I can operate at any time has something to it. I will run to our local home improvement place tomorrow, just to find out a quick & dirty (=cheap) way of coming up with a shelving that suits my needs. I also need to get Petra´s approval for it... </p> <p><b>Ken</b> - basically, I am with you on that continuous running. The point-to point layout is just for storing, displaying and occasional running a train on it, without having the necessity to clear my desk and assemble the layout.. There is a fear, though, that I might grow that into something larger ...</p> <p>Glad you had a better day in your store!</p> <p><b>Jeff</b> - I just love all those little scenes on your layout. Each one tells a story. And please don´t overwork yourself!</p> <p><b>Garry</b> - I am sad to hear that there is no improvement in your health condition, but as long as things don´t turn to the worse, there is still hope. My [angel] for that.</p> <p><b>Galaxy</b> - I have the impression that the reals estate agent is not doing a proper job. People always value their property too high, and it is the job of those folks to bring it down to a level which follows the market. Keeping my fingers crossed for you on that deal.</p> <p><b>Barry</b> - if you put something like that (tunnel tree) on your layout, the RC police will issue a citation for being unrealistic!</p> <p><b>Chris</b> - yessir, your comments set my mind on sending of sparks on how to continue with my layout. Thank you for making me re-think the concept a little - why not make something good even better?</p> <p>Welp, I have finished my coffee now - Petra is calling me to do some minor (?) household chores!</p> <p>CU and have a good one!</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
