Refurb Day3 (Finish what you started!)

Yes I did ring the advice line - I was going to leave some feedback about their product but strangely enough I can’t get through- some customer service that is after 19 years. How dare they switch numbers!

What’s on Bob’S Grass is taking a short break. Despite major deck surgery by karl burt some 5 years ago, I regret to inform you mrs Halen has suffered gravel blast which has opened further wounds and severe grass infection has now set in. The good news is however that after a 2,year search a donor organ has now been found!

For those baffled by my last posting - watch this!

This weeks Whats On Bob's Grass pays tribute to Pete Waterman and his incredible team of railway modellers as they are about to debug and exhibit "Making Tracks - 3" in Chester Cathedral. This 3rd extension of an incredible representation of the modern railway is set to inspire more young modellers as well as the older generation & I have to say that Pete has probably done more to de-stigmatize railway interest than almost anyone in the UK. The rivet counters amongst you will have spotted that its actually Making Tracks 3 based on Milton Keynes that is about to be exhibited, yet I have etched MT4 on my grass. This is because, just like the real thing, a model of a railway is never finished! and indeed plans for Making tracks 4 are already underway. If you want to see what can be achieved visit the link below for the real thing and search Youtube for behind the scenes footage of the project management in action...

The first cut of 2023. Overgrown to ensure enough grass to mark the occasion. To my mate Dave Fergie & his wife Alison. All the love in the world guys. Here's to the future..and here comes Mother Nature with the confetti

The winner of the recently announced caption competition goes to Helen Worthington for her topical input. Helen was instrumental in the setup of “whats on bobs grass” 10 years ago suggesting my grass cutting thoughts and rants had their own page. Thank you Helen, this is for you. It looks like the rest of the Tory party did what you suggested !

Celebrates 10 years. Yes folks this is where it all started with the picture below of the grass prepared for the Queens Silver jubilee 10 in 2012. Rather than risk treason for this upcoming Royal occasion, I thought I’d leave it up to you the viewer to decide on a suitable caption for the Platinum jubilee. Leave your answer below and the lucky winner will be immortalised on the next cut.
