The Alleged Magic of Steam

 

I know that for a number of "men of a certain age", steam railways are a source of fascination.

Not me.  I can't really see the attraction.

Thus, I can tell you nowt about this slide's subject. (Actually, Google suggests that it might be the Talyllyn Railway in southern Snowdonia, but .... yeah. Seems possible.

Bonus - Man Proposes, God Disposes

Anyone sick of Christmas Slides?

As usual, my eye is drawn to the drinks trolley, and recognise a bottle of Warninks Advocaat...which "Mother" is happily slurping on.
