Oh No, Not Again.

 This time our buyer has just been made redundant.

At times like this modelling could be a great way of dealing with the stress. But of course all my projects are now packed up.

Meanwhile, the twins are due to be born in the next couple of weeks, and Issy is still having a difficult recovery from the hip replacement.

Other than that, everything is just Dandy...

Guinness is Good For You

I don't know if I'll get to Ireland for pleasure this year. There is a good chance I'll be there for work with an old client. Perhaps I'll even get around to sorting out my Irish passport. Being an EU citizen does have advantages.

I was both surprised and pleased by the news that Regner are producing a Guinness loco

The video I've seen suggests it is capable of extremely slow running. So slow that its use indoors on a short layout could be possible. It wouldn't be an overtly Guiness-based layout, but something very industrial. perhaps featuring limekilns and a canal.
