Well, I've performed magic a few times on radio but Model Making?

Engineering, whether Model or full scale Industrial needs to be given favourable publicity.

Without Engineers, the world as we know it would not exist, and ploughing wiuld be courtesy of deer antlers!

The world does not realise what a debt it owes to Abraham Darby, Whitworth, Maudslay, Brunel and their peers.

I've always found model making on the radio difficult as it's really too small and I keep falling off. Used to be OK on the TV but that was before flat screens

Well to be honest… No

Whitworth, Maudsley and Brunel – was that a program on the BBC Light Program or am I thinking of Wilson, Kepple and Betty?

[Howard LewisParticipant @howardlewis46836]

Whitworth, Maudslay and Brunel and others should be in company with the inventors of textile machinery, (Water Frames, Spinning Jennies, Looms etc ) so all will be hard acts to follow!

Wilson, Kepple and Betty?

Not really noted for their radio work

Rob

P.S. I've no idea what Diane is talking about either

[JourneymanParticipant @journeyman]

No, but you can listen to the 'Sand Dance'

I assume it was the Archers. Socially the most progressive programme on the radio. I have not listened to it for over 25 years.

Ha!!! I knew I would smoke you out!

[Howard LewisParticipant @howardlewis46836]

Wilson, Keppel and Betty and their dancing really grates on me!

Thought they were a prog rock group from the 70's…….

First we have Model Engineering on radio now it’s bows and arrows!

I blame it all on lockdown😉

Perhaps you need a DAB of adhesive to stop you falling off ! Sorry…
