That's handsome. I really do hope they can get a (long) period of trouble free running out of it.
I think the livery suits it well.

 

That's the livery I remember...hauling the Queen of Scots out of Leeds Central with a little J50 giving a shove at the rear.... happy days...

 

Surprised 10a are putting up with the bare smokebox straps, surely they need to be blacked over ASAP...

 

Does it really matter? The inclusion of the cat tales is in a post relevant. It’s light hearted. Or do we have to abide by the rules so strictly nobody can have varying views? I recall something similar happening in Germany in the 1920s/1930s!

 

Thanks Harry, from Oswald &

 

I don't think I am alone in appreciating the cat updates, I await them with interest!

 

Cats ....rule....fact....

 

Thanks Al. Yes I am well aware of the thread but funnily enough I didn't create it - it was created by a moderator? who chose to move my post about the death of Diego to a newly created thread. As Diego had developed his own "fan club" in the "What's Going On" thread I chose to post it there to get the sad news through to all his "followers". Since the new thread was created I add cat posts with photos or video to this dedicated thread. After Maisie arrived and in response to a few posts and questions whilst I have been out and about I have added a single "Maisie" paragraph to my longer posts in WGO.

I do try to adopt a more rounded approach to my posts than most other members, I try to provide context, throw in a bit of humour and attempt to interest and entertain. I genuinely can't see what harm a paragraph of text is doing.

 

Keep posting the Maisie updates in What’s Going On.

 

Keep up the good work, all your posts are appreciated, particularly by myself. I find them fresh, light hearted, that's what life should be...,

 

very much agree keep it up

 

I do find that @Big Al can have a strange attitude at times. There really is nothing wrong with @Oswald T Wistle posting updates on Maisie in What’s Going On and I don’t see why it isn’t acceptable to post traffic info on the same thread. There are an awful lot of members on Nat Pres who photograph and take videos who appreciate the information.

 

careful now al will censure your post like he did mine he cant take criticism

 

If there is a choice between Maisie antics and Big Al's utterances keep the feline updates going Young Whistle
