David, Earl of Newark. (I was Earl of Newark in the film Elizabeth. I had a very short speaking part. My 15 minutes of fame. )
You can call me David.
So maybe the press doesn't like her

If i remember correctly it was in Mark Twains "Huckleberry Finn" when the boys got two guests on their raft, just petty thiefs who turned to be "royalties". One of them some Duke of England, or Wales, the other next emperor of France. This conversation reminded me of thatSuch Royalty.
Sherrel will have to watch how he speaks to us.
Congratulations.Morning Everyone! It is 47 degrees heading to 75 (doubtful) with mostly overcast and scattered showers. We have had a few showers the past few days which is akind to dumping a pail of water out the window - not akin to much of anything?
I have been trying to catch up on the posts after battling Chemo effects for 2-3 days.
Starting next Monday - I will have either Chemo, or Radiation 5 days a week with a couple Doctors appointments thrown into the fray along the way.
I thank the LORD that he gave me such a GREAT spousal unit! She plans to be with me for every treatment!
We had a quite anniversary dinner at home this year on Saturday
It was number 33!

It’s funny the owner of AIM was a client for years. I never knew it. His full time career was he was a pharmacist with his own store! After I retired and moved and I joined another forum he asked me where I had worked and that’s when we both realized who each other was. Turned out he had lived about 10 miles north of us too but as soon as we made that connection he sold AIM to Monroe. Terry and I had already moved to So. Central Wi.I used only AIM weathering powders, I believe that they are now owned by Monroe Models. Here is the other side. That's the brand that my LHS carried, I don't claim that it is better or worse than any others.

No offense please…Good morning all. Tea and toast please, Flo.
I do not know what you are hearing over the pond, but here very little news is coming from Buckingham Palace. Rumours are flying.
In the news Princess of Wales is named as Kate Middleton and not P.o.W. ???
No word on King Charles' treatment for cancer.?
Queen Camilla has stopped her Royal Engagements.?
Prince William is evasive on any questions.???
That's just a few strange things going on. Now we are hearing the 'world's media' are in London expecting some kind of announcement from Buckingham Palace this week.!!!
In other news; it's Monday and I take younger granddaughter to Brownies.
Dawn had a bad night, so still in bed.
I doubt I shall see the train room.
That is the 9.00am news.
Back later.

Come on Sherrel! Glad you’re feeling a bit better but YOU know no one in the Crew would do that! Invent a problem… Even our Chilli Man Troy Aka Troyphoto. Nor would any of us skirt the issues of politics. Thankfully we have the reasonable and sane Terry (bnsf971) for that tightrope walking to keeps a few of us in lineAH HA! And if there are not any - WE will invent one?

Nice job on that station.Good 43F Morning, Folks!
I noticed the neighbour was already sun-bathing in her backyard yesterday. It's not unusual around here, to see women in shorts and T-shirt when there's still ice on the ground.
Today is a no modelling day. I'd better be working on the bathroom reno, instead. This is the third, and last, bathroom reno I'll ever do in this house. The shower surround has to be tiled, flooring put in, plumbing done, and all the small stuff, like hanging mirrors and electrical.
My wife watches those darn renovation programs on TV, and the next thing you know, I'm renovating something. Her gardening hobby saves me in the summer, but, winters have become reno open-season.
I did manage to get all the windows and doors glued into my railway station yesterday:
View attachment 184384Until I can manage signage and weathering, I'm considering this structure completed. It's not perfect, but, I'm quite satisfied with this scratch-built result.
Willie - Thankyou for answering the reporting mark question on that GATX lease boxcar.
Curt - Glad to hear the rash is healing, however slow. Itchy rashes are the worst.
Louis - I was looking for the 'Yuk!!' button to apply on that canned hash photo, but, there isn't one. So here's my official 'Yuk!!'.
David - If I ever became sick enough to stalk someone in a loving way, it would be Kate.
Sherrel - That's a wonderful photo of you and the wife. Just so you know, I keep a file with saved photos of friends. Just so I can look back and remember. One day, when I'm turning over the keys of my layout to my great grand children, I'll show them some photos and say, 'These were my friends.'
Well, I better get out of here, before I get myself in trouble!
Have a wonderful day!
I'll take that as a YES from me too!David - If I ever became sick enough to stalk someone in a loving way, it would be Kate.
