<p>Good Morning Folks!</p> <p>Nice weather outside, sunny, a few clouds and not too warm - that´s the way I like my weather!</p> <p>Janie, just some coffee, please, lunchtime is coming up rapidly and Petra´s cooking up something smelling awfully nice! Speaking of cooking, Petra quite often asks me "what would you like to eat (fill in date)?" I never come up with an idea that moment, so I prepared a kind of table, listing the main ingredient, i.e. potatoes, noodles, rice, etc and branching of to the various kind of dishes which are based on those. This table revealed, that, despite having some 70+ dishes on it, our usual fare consists of "only" 20 different meals. While I am fine with this, Petra was not really happy with it - "we always it the same stuff..." Yes, we do, but I think most families do.</p> <p>She promised to spend time at the `puter searching for new ideas [dinner]</p> <p>I have got way too much time for bad thoughts. I am having second thoughts on that modular set-up of a switching layout again. The last three layouts I built were switching layouts and frankly, I think I had my fill with them. I don´t want another layout where a loco plus some cars more or less shuttle back and forth. OK, if I build them according to Fremo standards, I could have them integrated into the Fremo meets, but they are only twice a year, out of which I could attend only one (the other one is too far away). That´s not enough. The big questions is how to have continuous running in no space at all ...</p> <p><strong>???</strong></p> <p>No clue how I can achieve that.</p> <p>Have a happy one!</p>
