The West Country wrote:They look similar to potato cakes from Lancashire. Likewise for the West Country, we maintain a small standing army for humanitarian and defence needs that's it

Us too. For defence and humanitarian reasons only. In fact, Nuremgard was recently approached by the international community to hold peace talks to help end a civil war in a nation in our sphere of influence. We refused to hold the talks though because it would have meant giving safe passage to a war criminal.

My other country Shazria has a very different policy. It's an empire so it has an expansionist, imperialist foreign policy.

Hello all! Sorry I've been busy; I was meaning to post yesterday, but I never got around to it. I managed to talk to Duck and James yesterday about their argument, and thankfully, they were both at Knapford at the same time (James was about to take a goods train to Killdane, and Duck was arriving with a passenger train from Arlesburgh). I helped them talk things through, and they've made up! While I can't promise the two will never argue again, since I'm not sure I can keep that promise, they did tell me they won't get so personal like that ever again.

Duck: Yes. I think we both went a little too far that night, taking digs at each others' designs and saying the other wasn't valued by his original railways. I know I was a bit wound up that night because the Slip Coaches were in for maintenance, leaving me stuck with those bothersome ballast trucks.

James: And I was feeling a bit puffed-up after Sir Topham Hatt rode on my passenger train and complimented me on my smooth journey. I was so confident and proud of myself after that, that I acted kinda stupid.

Duck: We all makes mistakes sometimes. Let bygones be bygones, forgive and forget, eh James?

James: Agreed. Water under the bridge.

It's because hear hear is supposed to not interrupt the person speaking - applause drowns out the speaker and it's been that way for hundreds of years. A committee also said this on the matter "while we agree that spontaneous clapping at the end of a speech could in no way be interpreted as disturbance of the speaker, there is a danger that such a practice might be open to abuse and could lead in certain circumstances to orchestration of what would amount to standing ovations with the success or failure of a speech being judged not by its content but by the relative length of the ovation at the end."

Not American-centric all the way through.

I think it's more of a human-centric quiz too. I'm a steam engine, so as my Driver would say, 'I don't have any dogs in this fight' (which sounds like a horrible thing to say: Why would you want dogs to fight? That's animal abuse!). The closest thing I have to breakfast is coal and water, and that's all I really need. We don't even have set meals, really: we just fill up on coal and water whenever we're running low, or at the most convenient time.

Hello, Span! I'm good. Just dropped off some pigs at Farmer McColl's farm, and now I'm heading up to the quarry to pick up some stone trucks. How are you today?

A lot better actually, after we have secured Madrid what little remained of the so called

´´Red People's Republican United Army´´

has surrendered, also possibly due to us executing their leadership in a surprise attack at their High Command.

With our new gained power i am sure that Spanelsko and Iberia will see a lot better future with less deaths on our soil.

As you are one of the only nations we ever trade with, do you need anything?

Yus, Jews and bagels are tight. When you have to give up leavened breads for a week each year, you splurg for the rest of the year by eating the most leavened bread possible.
