I will be going to the Calne Model Railway Exhibition with a friend later this morning .

Should be excellent.
I did some work a few yrs ago for a guy in Helpston nr Peterborough.
He had a fantastic model railway, large shed housed most of it and then it went around a area of the garden..very impressive .

And another guy who made scale models of steam trains in his workshop.
The working models were about 4ft long , engine and the coal carriage.
He was building the Scotsman at the time...
It was just incredible, some fantastically talented people about hiding in sheds..

On a knife edge whether to do a few miles before lunch? Best check weather for a lame excuse to stay in or not. Could be some snow around Moel Famau and Loggerheads which might be fun on MTB?

My lastest invention of fitting a large powered fan to the front of my bike to counteract any effects of a headwind has developed serious problems !

The effects of the fan and headwind have conspired to work against me and I am now travelling backwards rather rapidly !

Gah! And I’ll add for good measure BAH!

I put loose leaf tea in the cup instead of the pot. Grrr.

Is this the way the day is going to be?

Best cup of tea ever, must be boiling water..and then you can practise the great northern art of " tea supping"..

I was thinking of making a modification to my bikes! I was thinking of fitting a spirit level to the crossbar so that I can see if I am actually cycling up hill or if my legs are feeling weak !

4 of my bikes have sloping top tubes so it would look like I was always going uphill .

If I turn my camera to take portrait pictures they will all look narrow.

You've a chance to pull the wool over his eyes then.
