>Sir Steve,
The hospital should have added a shot of tanqueray to each pint rather than mixing it with ale- they only give two pints at a time, takes 3 hours so I wouldn't have got drunk. Yes it's great to be up here in the north woods- firing my locos too, next is the Duchess, first I have to install the parts I obtained from Milton Locomotive Works in the UK.: the regulator extension shaft, the replacement blower valve spindle and the large bore water connector. They are in the Trade news section of issue 208 of the Gauge One Journal if any one is interested. page 46. I only tell you this to keep the message within the guidelines of our list!! Enjoy reading your progress on steam engine building and the frankness on all you accomplish - or don't accomplish! The humor too! Thanks! For those of you who, in my search for pity, using the tools of desperation pride, and grumbling, made you aware of my knee surgery and complications, I have now started to ride my mountain bike again! ----BTW I couldn't bare the taste of alcohol for two months but now it's a different story, I'll be ready for those bangers and mash and all the promised pints to wash them down! Geoff. The "Steam Worlds" will be with me in Sacramento Sir Steve and for you, Rob, "Banger and mash provider". >Lord Geoff, > >While I have no doubt that you can consume 8 pints at one sitting, don't you >think mixing blood in it is a bit extreme?
