Great time today at Southampton Model Railway Exhibition.
Thanks to David and the McKinley Railway team for answering my many DCC and computer-control questions. I've been following the project for years, so it was fun to talk to the people behind it.

Owl watching
🚅
Model trains time 😍
I couldn't resist buying this when I went to London. Lovely little set to get back into building. I forgot how annoying stickers are 🤣
Nice day exploring London. St Pancras is gorgeous, with Paddington ranking a close second. King's Cross is lovely too. It's a shame it's mostly behind the barriers. The Elizabeth line is good; I'm a fan. The shops being surprisingly quiet was a nice bonus.

First solo trip to London 🥳

Time to try this Eleventy thing I guess

Processing far too many long overdue photos

Back to reality
The Amazing Maurice (2022) 🍿
4/5 - Surprisingly good
The Muppet Movie (1979) 🍿
3/5 - Somehow never seen this one before.
World's Greatest Train Journeys from Above (S1) 📺
5/5 - I know I'm a train nerd, but this was fantastic. I think I have some new travel goals. The DHR's NDM6 was a real delight, it reminds me of a mini Class 08 🥰. Also the Hudson Bay Railway's green and white stripe livery is 😍
The Blues Brothers (1980 - Extended Version) 🍿
5/5 - This film gets better every time I watch it.
Movie friend
Disney's Newsies: The Broadway Musical (2017) 🍿
4/5 - I love this musical; just wish there were fewer crowd shots. Very tempted to try and get tickets to see it.
Von Ryan's Express (1965) 🍿
2/5
