Hey guys (and gals), it has been a long time. I am sure others have been in the same position where trains (hobbies in general) take a backseat to life. I am still around and typically check in on BPT every few days so if you need me send a PM or start a thread Andrew i will try and reply back promptly. I hope to be a bite more active in the forums soon and catch up on some repairs Andrew mods. Hope every one here is doing well. Big Grin

It happens. I’m in kinda the same boat with home repairs, first moving then not moving, kids’ school stuff, looking for a new job, selling a rental property, etc.... So yeah, I totally understand! Big Grin

We miss you Ripley. Will you be doing another Holiday Layout this year or have you remodeled the Train Room into an Sewing, Arts & Craft Room?

@Super
Yes I would love to do one and hope to have time to get working on it closer to thanksgiving, but we will see. I offered half of the room to my wife for any hobbies she may want to partake in but she (thankfully) declined. :-). To be honest I have not been in the train room for some time sadly.

I can imagine all that dust gathering on those part reparied T&A models, what a shame all that expertise is going to waste Smile

Thanks Nigel. Yeah I know I actually have probably 10-15 TnA in various needs of repair. Hoping to get those knocked out soon and maybe sell them off. One can only have so much TnA.. Cool

Having grown up in the era of Charlie’s Angels, Daisy Duke and Wilma Deering, I’m inclined to say that you can NEVER have enough TnA! Big Grin

ROTFL! Never a truer word spoken, although I preferred the originals myself lol!
