Nothing happens here...

What's in your drawers?

I have 14 drawers like this full of boxes, pots, bits and pieces. It's taken 15 years to acquire the myriad of spare parts that I've hoarded in my office/model room. The boxes don't take up much space, about one square metre under the Port Appin layout but they are invaluable to me.

Every modeller I know has a hoard like this, it's what we do! Look carefully and you'll see props you've seen in Port Appin dioramas. Sacks of coal, post boxes, lamp posts,chains, signs, little people including my nudes which MrsDB hates with a passion and forbids me to put them in Blips anymore. Look closer you'll see traffic cones, track pins, road signs, wing mirrors, wheels and windows. And have you spotted the tub of cows, sheep, horses and pigs?
