christmas day, i lounged around until the afternoon, watching "simons cat" cartoons on youtube. hilarious! finally, i got moving and went to the club where i finished taking down the decorations and laid another coat of green on the N scale layout.
from there, i went to blair and kylies mums to drop off keegans christmas present. kylie wrangled me into helping her set up the train set she got for him... result was i finally left at about 10pm after staying for tea. thanks again, you guys!
while there, blair mentioned a trip to waitara, which i was invited along on.
mum and dad got home the next day, bringing with them the trains mum got at zero to five. the big big loader is incomplete, sadly, but nice to have the box! the hypercity set is one of the bigger ones with clear tunnel, cardboard road and buildings. not pictured is the zip, zoom and logging set.
once everything was loaded, the crew kindly offered jigger rides over the recently re-opened bridge. i didnt go that way last time, so keegan and i went.
we got back to steamrail where the parts were placed on temporary track overnight.
sunday was another long day, spent moving cabinets, rolling stock and the loco the parts are for, in order to fit them inside. work well done, with tidying to be done over the next few weeks.
thanks for the great weekend, guys! nice to get dirty once in a while!
