Just returned from two weeks in Yorkshire. I think it rained almost every day! In York we made a visit to the National Railway Museumwhich was very good. The Duchess of Hamilton loco was in the paint shop being resprayed after new streamline parts had been fitted and was not on show until after we left.

Yorkshire is very good for old pubs where you can meet people and have a good beer and converstaion without having to have a meal.

Had a busy May Day weekend. My little Minilor Lathe was broken and I had to repair it to demonstrate for a prospective buyer.

Will be offline now for two weeks.
