In this shot, you can see I've covered the shade cloth with mortar, making it look more like an embankment.....

Can't help the B. S.




Joffa like to show his G Scale layout on his phone, very nice it is too !

What is different about the above two shots ?




I was showing everybody my Birthday Present, a lovely Bedford Bus in G Scale. I was a bit worried Joffa was going to pinch it !


I showed it to Peter, I think he was impressed ?
