After church this morning one of my friends gave me a large box containing a train set, apparently a friend of theirs found it the loft and knowing I liked trains decided that I'd be a suitable recipient 🙂.  It's a limited edition set and has a loco some wagons, a generous amount of track and some accessories. For a set that's 47 years old it's in remarkably good condition and looks like it was only used a couple of times. I shall have a lot of fun with it 🚂🚃🚃

Oh that's so neat ^^ ~ Are you going to add it on to your current one? Or is it going to be set up as its own separate thing?

No, it's going to be it's own separate thing. It's the same scale, but standard gauge rather than narrow gauge and there's no room left where the narrow gauge layout is. The new one will probably be a temporary one on the dining room table and provide me with an opportunity to run my collection of standard gauge locos.

I bought myself a second tripod. Why a second one? Well a tripod is pretty much essential if you're shooting video and want to avoid camera wobbles. My main tripod is great it goes up a long way so I can film over walls and fences it's also very study, but it's also quite bulky and heavy which is not a problem when I go to a railway gala by car, but it's another story when I have to carry it a long way by public transport! This new one is slightly smaller, and more importantly it's a whole 1 Kilo lighter than the other one.

I like that looks a lot easier to deal with.

it must be fun to use.  I used to wish I could draw instead of write.  but writing stories is also fun.

 

what shall you use it for?  like any specific projects?

The main use is for my GFX projects and I might try using it for photo editing. I won't be using it for my DTP or video editing projects as the mouse will be much better for those.

I have, briefly, tried to do some drawing with it without much success, but I plan to take it on holiday with me this year and do some practising rather than watching boring TV programmes.

She didn't say what it was though that she got me, no matter how many times I asked. lol OH, and she also bought me Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD after the Yu-Gi-Oh! game. ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ Zelda games remind me of how skilled big sis' was at playing that game and sparks memoriesI have of watching her play it on the old Nintendo console. That gray one that was one of their earliest consoles, if not their earliest console.

It's an S23 Ultra. Not the best out there but that's what my budget could get😎

Nice phone. It's always better to buy what you can afford rather than go into debt buying something you can't.
