Global Scale Modeller

Hi everyone.

I joined the forum a few days ago and I have only just got round to posting.

I have worked in the Railway Industry for nearly forty years, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! (excuse the pun)

I was a keen modeller from my mid teens to my early twenties, mainly Tamiya F1 cars.

Over the years other things gained more importance, ie a family and the need to work extra shifts to pay all the bills that come with parenthood.

Now the kids are grown up and I have more time on my hands, I have been looking around for something to occupy myself.

Just happened to stumble across the You Tube channel and thought why the hell not!

Bring on retirement, I've got myself a not so new hobby.

Regards.

Simon.

Thanks for the friendly welcome.

Twokidsnosleep is a distant memory now. I've been there, done that, but have yet to get the T shirt.

The thing I hate most is my son still leading his student lifestyle when he comes home!!

I'm even more jealous of the amount of alcohol he seems to consume when I'm paying!!

My grandfather worked for the railroad. Come to think of it, his name was Simon too.

I wouldn’t say I work, just turn up every now and then.
