Likewise. It seemed at the time everyone was 'in the Divi'

 :hellosign:

Has anybody further knowledge/experience regards this item please? It seems a good idea.

Having looked at several sets of specifications, there are various platform lengths given but nowhere can I see the platform width. 

It seems to only be available in kit form which may be a bit of a challenge for more elderly customers like me, and I wonder how easy it would be to maintain/repair once assembled. 

 :thankyousign:

The chap on One Tree Hill in Greenwich changed his stockings before the close-up. Maybe he got the white ones muddy :)

I have a question for UK baby-boomers on here.

How many of you can remember your Co-Op dividend number ?

This was a loyalty scheme where each family who joined it was given a 4 digit PIN number. You gave your "divi number" whenever you purchased something from the Co-op and at the end of the year each member was given a rebate on the total value of purchases for the year.

I can still remember mine - it's 8***

It's that time again. Get your sprouts on the boil in time for Christmas, in memory of Paul Price and Foster Street.

Now this is a very good use of AI.  Granted there are AI artefacts such as 5 legged horses if you look closely, but what a wonderful way to bring drawings to life

Took my new Farish V2 to the clubrooms last night so it could stretch its legs a little....

A possible anomaly in the chosen running numbers: if my references (incl the David Jenkinson book) are correct, 2P-010-307 BR Lined Maroon Brake Third - M20577M was a Period 2 Diag 1735... All the other BT number choices are P3 Diag 1907s.

Happy to be corrected if you have information otherwise...

He's right folks. That's embarrassing...  :-[

20577 should be 20757, we'll get that corrected.
