Thought I was screwed :-)

I swallowed a screw when I was a nipper. Rushed to hospital, x-rays etc.. was told to report back if any pain and let nature take its course. My mum had the worst job in world as she had to go through each of my poops (a potty thing was drafted in). Went back some time later to hospital to see...

I've only used routes so I don't know, but I imagine it will be the same. Can you tell me why you are asking this question? I do know JT licensing is restrictive, so once you activate it you can only run it from the same PC (AFAIK).

Just watched this, fair enough, he was brill. How do people know about a seagull screeching European championship?

I had a good look at one once to try and figure out what was going on, couldn't suss it. Tried looking for a pic, but unable to find one so I can see where these clips are.

Read about it a couple of days ago. Very sad. As the guy said on the video, Rushden has a problem with kids at the moment. Not holding my breath, but I hope the Police stop them before anything else happens. I wonder how many MK1 BSK's are left in preservation?

Going slightly OT, there was revision in the Manchester area, 1954 I think. The high quality photos of the revision points were unearthed and make for fascinating viewing. For example, if you search 'railway' you can see them doing platforms, signal boxes, signal posts, mileposts, platelayers...

Class 07's spring to mind too.

I've just watched 'Ukraine - enemy in the woods' tonight, had it recorded but forgot about it, it may be distressing to some people, but BBC2 didn't hold back. Basically, they were protecting a railway line from Russians and there are woods on either sides. It's all footage of what happened in...

Trying to think of EMU add-on I would spend £37.99 on. After a 10th of a second later.. the answer is none.

Those windscreen washers at traffic lights seems to be en vogue at the moment. Wont last, most people know now not to wind down your window at traffic lights. Anyway, back on topic, I've been going on about Birds Eye charcoal grills for a while on this thread - last week when I bought some...

If it's the one I'm thinking about (trundled up and down Talbot road many times), it has a car-park next to the entrance, bags of room for a hearse/funeral family cars.

It was flattened during world war two (I think the entrance to the chamber survived and so did Westminster hall) , so they had their chance then - I think it was Sir Winston Churchill insisted on rebuilding it to the old the spec.

To some of them it is! Some can make a lot of money too.

Join a local facebook group, there's always a (railway) crank on them advising of steam specials passing through. Best bet as suggested above, is to keep an eye on upcoming railtours.

Are you sure it was a Turkey?, could have been a chicken? or did you see it on December 24th lol.

Does it really matter? I call them Railway stations btw.

Kronenberg is the latest case of 'Beck's syndrome' down from 5% to 4.6%, Stella Artois these days is 4.6%. Becks has to be the worse though down from 4.8% to 4% - just doesnt taste the same.

Indeed, Welly and Squeak were huge class 40 'bashers'. Welly is no longer with us, unsure about Squeak. I've got a photo of them.

Not changed at Crewe for a few years, is (or was) the café on P6 a Pumpkin? I do remember last time I went they served beer.
