    Blimey Ian,

    You must be working like a man possessed.?????

    These buildings are popping up very quickly.......well done Sir:thumbs:

    Once you start lifting and rotating traversers you need a lot more room for the rotation, but actually it`s not so much a traverser then as a cassette.????

    Hi Gormo you might recognize the chiminey from St Michael .. just got to cover it in a darker brick paper. The traverser rotator cassette turny thing wont need to be too long .. probably ony 3/4 vans/wagons long or an 0 6 0, 3f or occasional prairie but yes a sliding cassette may work better ... mmm :scratchchin:

    I'll have no cruelty towards goats please. You'll have the RSPCA on my doorstep.

    I will make a compromise Gormo ........ You can have a tub of goats cheese in the tank ........ But no more......... Not even ticks. If you must ........ Then through in half a clock.:hammer:

    OK Toto :worship:

    The goats cheese compromise..........not quite the same really as a floating goat.....but there you are.???

    Would you consider a dead pigeon and a couple of empty crisp packets and a tam o` shanter.?:scratchchin:

    Looking good Ian. :thumbs:
    I guess you have retrieved the goat from the water tower...?? :scratchchin:

    There is a saying down here in Oz, 'hair of the dog', which is an alcoholic beverage consumed as a hangover remedy, or beer for breakfast !
    As for 'hair of the goat', well it could genuinely be in the beer your producing ! :avatar::avatar:

    Cheers, Gary.
