Definitely a good candidate for a "Please drive carefully through our village" sign

Yes I ask the stupid questions, because normally it is that simple.

Re: Funny pictures and videos
On Facebook I follow a group dedicated to Vanguards die-cast models. I follow it mainly for this contributor who posts up an almost daily diorama featuring British cars of the 60s and 70s in period settings along with a little story to accompany each. They invariably provoke a big smile...
This one really amused me
It's worth being on Facebook simply for this group and Paul 'Potsie' McAlpine
I absolutely love dioramas of all kinds. I like models too but they are an order of magnitude better when part of a diorama. I only wish I had the talent to create dioramas for my collection but alas...

Re: Funny pictures and videos
I do love a diorama, it taps into your childhood when pushing a toy car along and imagining the world in miniature. Perhaps that why some people have big train sets (which don't interest me).

Re: Funny pictures and videos
I think you're right Ryan
I'd love a big train set but neither have the space, time, skills to do the modelling and my pockets are nowhere deep enough...
I follow a few railway modelling Facebook groups and through those I see just how much the rolling stock can cost. It's eyewatering. I do admire some of the modelling and diorama building skills I see.
One aspect I really admire is the skill of 'weathering' rolling stock to make it look realistically well-used, dirty and scruffy - as much actually looks in real life. The railway modelling equivalent of the automotive 'rat-look'. I love that too...

Re: Funny pictures and videos
"You're useless plasterboard, you're weak. I should never have bought you in the first place" Will that do, or is that just a mild rebuke ?

In fairness to them Matt I read it 4 times and didn't spot the problem until bobins' post made me know what to look for!!

You wouldn't think I'd any eye for detail given the mistakes that I drop regularly, but I blame tap-tap- tapping my phone screen for all I post on here and auto correct for those!
