I don't think there was any runs due to the weather.
Tonight would be a great one butas is typical, I've got prior commitments 
Hopefully will be doing an early morning run this weekend and will give a shout out to see if anyone is available.

Same as Steve above ^^, except I wasn't shopping... Oil pump turned up this morning so fitted that and thought I would test it all again for
leaks, fingers crossed it is leak free now... wooohooooo.
The problem with the weather at the moment is we can't really even organise anything more than a day away, and even then it is not guaranteed to
be right.

ETA.
You wanted a pic last time Steve, here it is.
No prizes for guessing the location however.....

Just as well there were no prizes, yes you are correct.
Depending on a fellow locoster turning up to collect some parts, I may be free Sunday if it's still reasonable weather. Maybe an evening run or
something?. I will know more nearer the time.
