   I bet you could hear the Welsh voices ringing round the valleys in time with the steam exhaust! A sound unit with choir voices could make a really stunning model!

   Makes a nice change.

   Doug. The chief engineer had a large field and stables at his house where he kept six dragons. He used to take two on alternate days on their leads down to the ship. The ship provided very much an Ifor the Engine type service taking Sunday School Outings and local Male Voice Choirs for trips out around Flat Holm and Steep Holm.
   
   Cheers, Nerys

   Diolch, a'r un peth i chi hefyd, yn Rhawiau🤞
   
   Was your dragon related to the little one who fired the boiler of a saddle tank steam loco?

   Doug, I felt a dragon was very appropriate for a fire boat. Some years ago, I wrote a children's story about a paddle steamer whose boilers were fired by dragon's breathe. Yes, rather out of my normal run, but our club member was disposing of his fleet and I wanted to help out. She only took me a couple of weeks to finish as the hull was complete. I also bought a Dragonforce 65 from him so that Alice had one to race against my existing one.
   
   Pob Lwc ac Iechyd dda, Nerys

   Funny😐
   I thought Welsh dragons breathe fire not extinguish them!?😉
   
   Nice one Nerys, a little out of your Comfort Zone!
   Cheers, Doug 😎
