If anyone has been wondering where our excellent Global Moderator Mick has been, the fellow has been in hospital for a week.

Latest news is good. He had a procedure this morning, which he tells me was successful.

So he should be back annoying members soon! 

The Tale of the Lost Railway (Part – Fourteen)

Breakfast at Baskerville Manor was, of course, a lavish affair but everyone had finished  and were seated on the motor coach by 8-30 am as planned.

The six men were joined by Flic and Melissa plus Giles Forsythe, the Baskerville Estate Manager.

By 9-05  all nine were aboard the train. The lone station porter,  who had come up especially from Newton Abbot as Moretonhampstead was officially closed to passenger traffic, loaded seven or eight large picnic hampers, filled with food and drink, aboard whilst the driver checked around the little diesel to ensure that all was well.

"I say old bean", remarked Bertie Poppingham to John Hammond as he surveyed the interior of the Pullman carriage, "You have certainly done us proud with this beauty"

"Only the best" , replied John, "It's a special carriage for a special day. We'll be travelling back down the line to Newton Abbot first then back up here again then onto Baskerville. That will allow us to get a feel for most of the line".

At exactly 9-15 the driver gave a little toot on the horn and they were off.

Over at Mrs Harris' Guest House in Baskerville village  Colin Penn had just finished his omelette with bacon and pork sausages.

He collected the packed lunch, thanked his host and headed off along the main village street in search of the lane  which headed along to the railway.

To be continued........

On a recent visit to the doctor, I was told I had to provide specimens out of both orifices. Glad to see them colour coded so I know what goes where!   

Must say I was impressed when Charles and Camilla arrived at the Commonwealth Games in the Tardis!

Quote from: njee20 on Yesterday at 06:59:02 PMDefinitely haven't mown ours in a month. Our corners are very different.

Ours is a wildlife garden - so it'll get clobbered later in the year for the most part to simulate what would happen if there were goats and pigs and the like present.

Much easier to maintain much cooler and full of life. Got inch long grasshoppers all over the place.
