It gets that way. I'll just go and check me Fender 

Decisions, decisions

Not sure if this goes in the happy or annoyed threads

Broke a number 9 guitar string yesterday so I now have enough spare handrail wire for the next few years.

 

Welcome to modern medical practices, Mick. I had two injections in my abdomen on Monday, and am now dealing with an infection.

Not worth the angst.

One side of me says that post #17 is cool.

But the other side looks at it from a promotional point of view, and thinks that we should have a wagon that stands out and says, "Hey, this is the N Gauge Forum!"

To me, wagons like this are one offs, and are exactly what they are - remembering and promoting.

An NGF wagon rolling around an exhibition layout can't be doing the forum any harm, eh.

Guitar solo? Drum solo? Jamming with some of the guest artists?

How about black with white or yellow wording?

Yes, Black Van with yellow lettering shaded red! Poss to be less usual a "Gunpowder" shape as glass is heavy and would not be stacked high.

I received a letter yesterday from Chorley Hospital giving me an appointment at the Fracture Clinic on 2nd Sept at 16.30hrs. The letter gave full details about parking, where to go, bring any medications etc so I reckoned this was my long awaited MRI scan.
However, when I finally got through on the phone (after 8 attempts) I was informed this was just a telephone appointment with the spinal consultant who would give me the results of an MRI scan I haven't got an appointment for yet.
If the NHS was a private company they'd have gone to the wall years ago

There still is (technically) a Northgate brewery here in Devizes. I say technically as it has closed down (moved really) this year but the building itself won't be demolished. It will be turned into flats.
