  7. Trouble I'm too old and rickety to get into trouble. And the strange thing is, all of the volunteer things involve, sitting down and talking. I can do that until the cows come home.
  8. The Beccles line out of Southtown closed Late 58 early 59. As I remember Eastern Counties put on a bus service through from Yarmouth St Peters road bus station to Beccles, basically following the line to St Olaves then through Haddiscoe dam. I couldn't have been 7 yet when it started. The line at St Olaves went across the A143 just past the Herringfleet road to Somerleyton.
  9. The line definitely was still beside the swan in the 60's Second picture shows a Diesel shunter but the first one is of the double ended skirted shunters used between the Quay and Vauxhall
  10. I can almost feel the warmth of that beaming smile from here.
  11. Is that opposed to never leaving a pub whilst open
  12. Not exactly My day more like my half week Having been on holiday in Norfolk I arrived home on Monday. Then back to full time volunteering on various committees 5 different committee meetings in 3 days. Three of which were to resolve the same issue. Then this morning I had to drive halfway across the county for an interview for a volunteer job. Interview, well more of a chat with four people I know very well. But they did fire quite a few good interview questions at me. Arrived home to phone call from the Chair of the committee where we had the 3 meetings, so another hour and a half going through protocol. Since 1:30 I have actually had some me time. Well when I say me time balancing the end of year accounts for the tenants board I sit on. At 5:15 another phone call not one I had been expecting as they said It maybe after the weekend, But good news is that I have been accepted for the position. I am to be a Member of the board of Directors for our local housing management company. And Relax BLUUUURGH
  13. Thanks to Mike for stepping into the breech As I said last week on the chatroom I have had a very hectic week. 5 different committee meetings in 3 days. Then this morning I had to drive halfway across the county for an interview for a volunteer job. Heard in the last five minutes that I have been accepted for the position. I am to be a Member of the board of Directors for our local housing management company.
  14. Growing old is Mandatory. Growing up is Optional.
  15. Happy Birthday Or should it be ...... penblwydd hapus
  16. "model #2 will have to have the hair a bit greyer" And a few more lines in the face?
  17. "an old bit with an artistic wood worm look! " Are we back to talking about Timbo again?
  18. Wow Broads Water Fever at six! Thank god there is no cure for it. I got my first dose of it at the age of three and I'm still not cured. And that's too many years of suffering waiting for my next fix.
  19. Near to me at Capel le Ferne (Between Folkestone and Dover) There is the Battle of Britain Memorial Built on one of the big gun emplacements. They have two such replicas both of fibreglass. One of each Spitfire and Hurricane. It's quite possible the moulds to make these are the original moulds from Pinewood studios, where many replicas were made for the film Battle of Britain. Most of which was filmed three miles away at Hawkinge WW11 airfield.
  20. Just a Shirt and Tie? I didn't know there was a naturist enclave in Ipswich.
