  1. Today
  2. I have a particularly dull but enjoyable interest which is collecting different beer bottle tops and arranging them in a special display pack that was bought for me as a present As you can see there are no duplicates and just a few more slots to fill but it has been a real labour of love (for beer) so far Not too dull then I suppose 🙂
  3. Lucky kid! every boy's dream and some realise it later in life when they have the time and money to build an excellent setup
  4. crikey, that's dedication for you!
  5. Sounds very much like the Erich von Däniken theory where he claimed that human history had been shaped by visitors from outer space A lot of evidence has been left over the years (take the ancient Egyptians - try and explain that one!) and the halo around Jesus head looks like a space helmet Well you get the drift, the digger you deep the more lost in thought.....
  6. Last week
  7. i had a whole double bedroom , 2/3 of it was boarded with railway on top. spent many hours in there, just wished my old man bought me more stuff for it. Had all the Yeoman trucks with ballast, class 56 loco or class 47 would pull them fully loaded. had to be careful as too fast and would topple around the corners and you would have loads of grit everywhere. Had signals, both types as well so would do night shift stuff.. was brill. Mate used to come round with his Lima steam loco and a drop of 3&1 in the funnel and it would puff smoke rings.. not sure if your supposed to do that or not. seemed fun at the time.
  8. this was the missus making me get the BBQ out in November. Way to much excitement for a Novembers evening
  9. Wow! thats quite heavy I remember watching a documentary on Einstein's theory on relativity and time & space travel One of the only things i remember from it is that he timed a train journey and it clearly showed that time sped up but as soon as it stops then it reversed and therefore no advancement in time overall. Concorde proved it through inter-continental travel at Mach2 but it always returned to the base setting
  10. that does look cool in slow-mo .... or should that be hot rather than cool?
  11. Fantastic set up and envious that I never had one like that when I was a kid There are several celebs that have awesome train sets and guess its a de-stress from hectic lifestyle
  12. These guys have really gone to town on this model railways. They produced this video with all the sounds to go along with it as well. Real blast from the days of standing on a railway station as a kid.
  13. I was mesmerised by poking the fire. Then thought it would look cool in slow mo. 20241108_161747.mp4
  14. bit like that on the keyboard as well lol
  15. I was at a party and having some great chit chats as you do. One convo that got me wondering is when someone mentioned to me that humans could be the Aliens on earth, Err how? i asked. Well for a start why can humans not stand bright sunlight in their eyes, but animals don't have this issue? Why do humans get sun burn in the sun? But animals have the solution. I am sure there is lot more to it. What if the Aliens we perceive are actually the natural inhabitants and we are the invading Alien, learning to cohabitate on earth? This is way to bloody exciting.
  16. I was watching a documentary about time travel, yes i did fall asleep but it;s interesting and I have always had a fascination on time travel. The things I think about but cannot wrap my head round it properly. 1. Why do we always talk about the past as if it was behind us, when it could be in front of us? We always talk about our past relatives as descendants but on a family tree they are in front, above us. 2. What if there is already time in front of us, a life being lived by someone else ahead. So material things like trees, grass, monuments, castles, rivers etc.etc. were left to us from the future, all this happened years before. Freaks me out lol Funny.. just came across this video
  17. Earlier
  18. Now for many years I can say that I am definitively dull in the truest sense of the word> Having been told by my good lady that I am boring and dull because I have certain hobbies that she does not indulge in, therefore I must be dull, according to her! However, you put two men in the same room who have a shared interest in whatever the subject may be then it suddenly becomes amazingly interesting to discuss this mutual interest. Am I, or am I not correct? Just because the subject is not shared by another, it is necessarily Dull to everyone else? Your thoughts please gentlemen

  22. and quite robotic in their movements nothing is carried out in haste
  23. haha....oh dear that's cutting! sometimes the most boring people turn out to be.......dull 🙂
  24. in response to my previous post, I have also got to wonder how something that big can stay up in the air also considering it has fuel, staff, passengers, supplies and luggage as well (image sourced from X)
  25. always amazes me how something this big actually floats and don't forget all the passengers, staff, supplies, fuel, water and luggage
