This "not too good " Peter.

Come clean Peter. We are all adults now. We can take it.

It's going to be p.ssing wet all day! So the shapely Carol said on breakfast TV this morning.

 

Shapely??? :shocked:

 

It's probably a withdrawal symptom that's affecting his vision due to him giving up alcohol, plus a lack of Bavarian Serving Wenches to feast his eyes on, and no Bulleids on the mainline currently. :smile:

I'll tell you what, I'll take her instead of an electric blanket on a cold winters night. :biggrin1: Cozy, oh yes.

 

Amazing. A thread I thought was about a steam tour turns out to really be about the merits of a weather presenters body.
It would be nice to have a pic posted so that we can all decide.:becky:

 

Sounds a bit steamy to me!!

Anyone going to be sending update texts to RailTour Live? Other than me?

Phone number is 07786 20 22 40
Text content is like this NATPRES t0825a departed Staines 09.35

Now, what were we saying about weather girls....

 

I should be at Victoria so will send a message when it leaves... will be my final text to system as I leave Friday to go to live in NZ. Will miss all the steam activity... and Carol.

 

Sadly the above is very true!

 

Sorry to hear you're leaving. Still, New Zealand, wow. Hope that gives you a great life!

There seems to be plenty of steam activity in NZ, mainline and heritage, so hopefully you'll soon be turning our heads with some exotica.......

Will be at work all day Wednesday, will probably go across to Brookwood (again)

in the evening for the water stop ( if it does!) depends on what the weather girls

have to say...!

Exotica, well it is all black down there except for the buffer beam!

 

"Chikipedia" - LOL, whatever next.

 

Well I wouldn't mind resting my weary head between those 'pillows'!!!
Getting back on topic I hope it's a good day out and I look forward to seeing the linesiders results on here.

 

Whatever next?

Bit of a mouthfull I know, (Bryan, behave yourself!).

I promise I will behave tomorrow when this thread gets live and covers the train.

In the meantime, my photos of last Wednesday when I started off by following 30777.
