Actually, saying I'm on the loose again is a bit of an exaggeration. My PICC line is connected to a bottle hanging in a pouch around my neck and the whole set up is extremely confining and awkward.

So I'm housebound... no bus stop trips in the immediate future! 

VB printing the labels on backwards?. Or, has VB changed its name to BV?

Good to see you loose once again, George 

Webbo

Yeah, but she drives me crazy!

Yeah, they were good.

Thats good news this morning George. Glad to hear the bribes to the guards worked and you were able to jump the fence while they looked the other way!

All right, bro!

Finally! Welcome out!

            

Enjoy the VB George, you deserve it after what you have been through.

Well, you never know what's next in hospitals, do ya. Nurse came in yesterday morning and said, "You're going home today"  just like that.

Bloody hell, a very fragile Bealman scrambled through a mist of pain and got himself ready for extraction.

Anyway, he is now back home for better or for worse (PICC line hanging out of arm, etc), but at least after six or so weeks is reunited with....



Happy days!

I've managed not to buy very many new toys this year (so far!). I have mostly been spending money on track, which has seen me purchase 2 sets of scissor crossings and 28 turnouts. Another 8 turnouts to purchase and I will have enough to finish building the fiddle yard. Once these are all purchased it will be time to buy the point motors and then it will be on to the boards to control these and monitor the fiddle yard ready for automation.

My job this week is to build the 3 main boards for the fiddle yard and start to lay track. I have managed to cut almost all the ply for this today, so there is hope.
