Some pictures of Diana and Myself, where we now live and places around us, things that we find interesting, amusing or just plain weird!

This Post Is All About Our Model Train Layout,
sorry about that, but we decided to have a day in so it was all steam ahead! whilst deleting to days comments I was reminded of the old adage, if that is what it is called, 'what's the difference between men and boys? the price of their toys! but on to the trains, I have now started to fill in the gaps at the front of the track with ground cover, the glue has not dried yet so the colour is a bit different in places, but tomorrow will see if it is acceptable, also I have planted the trees that Diana makes over part of the hill, but it is still looking a bit bald in places so a few more arts and craft sessions coming up,
I still have the river to colour in a job for the future,
late in the afternoon I decided to run a couple of trains around the track just as Mark arrived, most of the early evening was taken with track cleaning, then down stairs, we both did not feel like going out so it was feet up for an evening of Sherlock Holmes, we had seen them before but so enjoyable neither the less, then off to bed.

Stan,
Looks like all the hard work is starting to pay off.
Dear Daryle, yes it has been a long time in the making, not to mention a long time still to go, but it has been great if not some times frustrating fun, like when a power pick up was faulty and made both sides of the track live, but hey that is was a small thing in the overall scheme of things, so a couple of days away from the trains then back to full steam ahead! best regards, Stan and Diana.
