There are precious few benefits to an early finish when you're working away from home (and this the model bench) but ITV4's programming is one of them

Narrow gauge is a niche world. I'm turbocharging that niche tonight with this book. While running in Penrhyn Mainline Hunslett "Charles" on the rolling road, complete with firebox glow.
You're very welcome 👍😊

I can't do you a full size rocket, but I do have an unmade kit of a Saturn V rocket in my kit stash. I'd like to build it, but have no room for the finished item. I'm sure it would look splendid in your lounge though 👍🤣🤣

I'm coming to see you in Monmouth!! @racheljs.bsky.social is coming too, and I think @g7kna.co.uk and perhaps even @nightqueen.co.uk . In the meantime, I'm reading this so I'm up to speed on the book. I've been fascinated by the Shipping Forecast for 45+ years!!

Exactly 50 years ago today I sat wide-eyed in the school hall watching the very first commercial flight of Concorde take off from Heathrow for Bahrain. Today I have been to #AerospaceBristol to see G-BOAF, "Old Foxy" as we know her, and to reflect on half a century and more of aviation memories.

Found this photo of @racheljs.bsky.social and me earlier, not long after we'd got together, so probs early 2020 before the bloody COVID shenanigans. I am noticeably more grey about the follicle output, but happy to report that Rachie is still jolly gorgeous 🥰

I've replied with my thoughts.
A Douglas DC-3 airplane crashed on the roof of a house in Ruislip, London, England shortly after takeoff. Everyone in the plane and the house miraculously survived. A four-month-old baby in the upstairs bedroom of the house slept through the chaos. December 1946.

In other news, it is day two of my holibobs. I'm finishing these off today and priming them before going away for a few days tomorrow. And, unusually for me, I'm indulging in a spot of daytime drinking 👍😁🍻🤣🤣
