I think lots of these people with grand ideas never waste time or money on actually starting a project anyway.<br /><br />Thanks for another interesting post, while I am on an "away from modelling" stage your blog is the only one railway related one I pop in on, mainly because of your "non puritanical" view point :)<br /><br />I’d like to invite you to add your blog to the <a href="http://rjrdaydreamer.blogspot.com/2011/08/family-friendly-blogs-linky-list.html" rel="nofollow">Family Friendly Blog List</a> its a ranging mix of different blogs, the common denominator being they are family friendly.John Tealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09873356271475934162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8957086155273505111.post-76246194870703391022011-09-04T13:54:31.918+01:002011-09-04T13:54:31.918+01:00Ha!
