Title: I'm back
Post by: Oldman on February 18, 2013, 10:47:11 AM
Thank you for all your messages via " monkey".
In a nutshell what happened was I popped out to get something from the local shop and got caught in a very heavy shower,got cold, wet and it just snowballed from there.
I have been told by both the women in the house no modelling for a while so may just start trying to read War and Peace or something similar to keep me occupied.

On the plus side I missed all the crap that is Valentines day but on the down side it was also my wedding aniversary. :uneasy:

Welcome back Oldman. Now that "while" is it a wee while or a wait a bit while ?. You can always use the I haven't done anything for a while mode to expedite things more rapidly.

Any more of these rambling and you'll be back in the hospital so I'll shut up. :-X

By the way I have just made the new scalescenes GWR station. The goods shed looks ideal for one of your shoebox layouts.

Pleased your back home and on the mend Mike.
An ideal time to print off and make up a few models like Jerry writes.

cheers John.

Ok Jazzy, in that case it counts as a wee while.
Guess he is in charge of the remote for the week then...

Is he allowed to supervise you making your own baseboard ?

Good to have you back Mike, Jazzy is under instructions to keep at you to make sure you are following doctors orders, she also has some advice for you when you do her MDF baseboards for her  ;)

Welcome back Oldman, don't try and rush things too quickly, get yourself 100% before attempting any more layout stuff, pneumonia takes a while to get over, been there, got the tee-shirt and the video.   :thumbsup:

Good to see you back Oldman, think yourself lucky that you have only been told to lay off modelling for a while.

A mate of mine has just been told "John you are not allowed to buy any more locos, you don't need them and half the time you don't use them"  :veryangry:

Take your time and rush into things slowly for a while
