Winning on a foggy Sunday morning.
Went for Saturday Cup of Jazz yesterday morning, for the first time in almost 2 months, then spent most of the afternoon mulching mulberry leaves. Almost half the leaves still on the trees - need a good frost to finish them off. But my lilacs are blooming again - not supposed to happen until April! Stupid weather, it's supposed to be Winter, not Spring.

Got to see video of my model railroad club being torn down. Rather sad!


That would sadden me too. Last thing I did was in N gauge. While I was in the US I let my teenage daughter here in England use it. Some years later I was going to resurrect it but no locos or rolling stock could be found and she denies all knowledge. I suspect some boyfriend of the time was involved. Anyway that took the heart right out and I haven't got involved since, except for attending exhibitions. I don't list it as a hobby any more.

Just noticed the thread title. If the winning message number is the Tardis basecode we may be here for a while...

I was into HO scale, so I know what you mean Shannock, all that is gone now, I helped with the cad program featured in Model Railroader Magazine that's known as XTrkCAD, I added some HO track components that I felt were missing.

I once used one of those programs, possibly that one, to design a new layout for the club. We never built it.

I don't care as much about the morning getting earlier as about the evening getting later.
