Good Morning! Yoohoo? Anybody here? Kind of empty, this place. Patronage has dropped considerably in the last few weeks. Vinnie tells m that he may have to lay off staff - I see that Suki and Teri Yaki have already left. Zoe, I am hungry. Make that a stack of hot cakes, sausages, eggs, buttered toast, mushrooms, a tall glass of OJ and lots of coffee in my new K.H. RR & Nav. Co. mug, please. I am pondering to bite the bullet and go down the DCC route with my layout. Piko infrared DCC systems can be had for as little as $ 80 in The Bay - brand new. OK, these don´t have all the bells and whistles a much more expensive systems offers (only 8 function keys), but that should do for a 2-train layout. Makes wiring a lot easier... The benchwork still gives me a headache. It needs to be light-weight for ease of transport, must be fastened to a wall, using steel racks and supports, and strong enough to have that lower leg of the "T" attached to it (how?). Need to discuss that with my new MRR friend, who is a carpenter by trade. I still hope to have that benchwork up by end of this month... Flip - I know how you feel. I have lost my voice a long time ago, following my first heart attack. Before that, I used to sing in a choir (bass-baritone) and in an Irish Folk band. Now I don´t dare to sing when I am having a shower [:-^] Jeff - I am wondering what happened to that little package I send your way. The one Petra´s uncle sent to me left Oregon on the 25th and arrived here just about a week later. I have heard a number of times that mail send from Europe to the US takes much longer. Give me a holler when it arrives. <img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/Smuggler_1r_zps7a332c7d.jpg" alt=" " /> <img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/Smuggler_5r_zpse7ca78ba.jpg" alt=" " /> Todayßs going to be a "hot" day! Temeperatures will scratch on the 20°C mark. Last year, it was - 15°C on this day... Have a good one!
