a poor attempt at a pun

Today Richard has been at the Model Engineer Exhibition. He was Exhibit #356. He was attending with Exhibits #244 and 245. Exhibit #245a (accessory: one wife) had to stay at home to look after #27, who is a fine example of early 20th century engineer, but unfortunately too elderly to travel now.

(I can't have been the only person to read its title as an exhibition of model engineers, not for them?)

The flat is now even more full of heavy greasy bits of metal than it was before. We need to move.

Sounds like we need to make up some information displays for the various model engineers - in time for the next model engineer show at the end of january (where, oh yes, there shall be rockets, and rocketpeeple)

oilrig is the platonic ideal of a model engineer (subtype electronic) - long hair in a pony tail, wears black and a greasy leather jacket, has very short manky finger nails from trying to use them as tools and always carries a swiss army knife with more attachments and gadgets than the average kitchen!
