Cool Tri-Ang trainset. That's the make I had as a kid, still have a few pieces of it.. A CN Dayliner and a British InterCity.. The green ones with the motorized coach and a matching non motorized coach.

Santa delivered just what I asked for, a new mobile phone and a digital tachometer.

I have already been playing with the tacho and measured the spin speed of my Hotpoint Liberator 1851/03 and it comes in at 730rpm not bad as I think it’s rated to be 750rpm.

6 sets of lights

No need for the heating on in the front room then Gary.

Well, I’m just as guilty; I put 5 sets on my tree as well.
And there proper bulbs none of this LED rubbish, I love messing with them, one bulb just has to be loos.

Everyone says when I switch on the tree lights the rest of the lights in the street dim.
