    History, references, and resources for modeling the earliest decades of British rail travel.   This is a guide to the earliest period of railway history, from the very beginnings of steam traction at the start of the nineteenth century, up to about 1880. Over these few decades the railways evolved from something that at the start was markedly different, into a scene that any present-day railwayman would recognize. It is a time with much to commend it from a modeler’s point of view. The trains were much shorter and therefore easier to fit into the limited space most of us have available as, correspondingly, were the station layouts, especially at the beginning of the period. Covering infrastructure, locomotives, carriages, and wagons, this is an invaluable resource for those who want to explore the modeling possibilities of nineteenth-century railways.

    Warning: Explicit Content. My Juliet--Examined Right There on the Beach: A Shy, Shivering Wife, Her Controlling Husband, and His Medically Unqualified Dad. A Story of Appalling Humiliation. Derek Vernon is just trying to relax and enjoy a pleasant day at the beach, along with his wife Juliet and his parents. And, given how smokin’ hot Juliet looks in her bikini, it promises to be a very pleasant day, indeed! Until his sweetie comes running out of the water in a panic. Something has gotten onto that fantastic body of hers—something that stings and itches badly.Not to worry. Derek’s dad works in the medical field. He’ll handle everything.Not that this man is a doctor or anything close. He’s merely an x-ray technician. Still, he’s the best they have at the moment. But what Derek’s dad lacks in medical qualifications, he more than makes up for in sheer gall. He actually orders the shaking young woman to lie down on the beach blanket, where he proceeds to remove her swimsuit and examine her very carefully.Carefully, thoroughly, and very intimately—right there on a public beach with dozens of gawking bystanders. And Juliet is perhaps the last person on Earth to endure such humiliation. In fact, she has frustrated her husband to no end for years with her over-the-top body modesty and inhibited sexuality.So, although Derek should feel sorry for the ordeal his wife is being put through, all he feels is major arousal—not only from the spectacle of her gorgeous nude body, but from Juliet’s gorgeous look of reluctance and embarrassment…and, strangely, from the jealousy he feels seeing his dad being granted more viewing and feeling rights than he ever had!And this jealousy is made even worse when a young lifeguard comes over and checks Juliet over just as intimately—explaining that she has a case of sea lice, which he treats by dabbing her with medicine very nearly everywhere.By now, Derek is seething in envy and arousal. Thank God his shaken wife just wants to go home because this hugely horny hubby has big plans for her—plans that will not only satisfy his envy-tinged arousal but teach her a thing or two about the joys of giving her husband what he’s always wanted—and more!Fans of ENF erotica featuring beautiful and very nervous women who find themselves in the most embarrassing, debasing, humiliating situations imaginable—this one is for you! Get your copy today and see how “uplifting” a day at the beach can be!This is Book #7 in J.C.'s latest series: "My Wife--Submissive at Last"--a collection of titillating tales featuring horny, hard-up, and harried husbands who find themselves in newfound positions of power and dominance over their demanding, controlling, and sexually conservative wives. It sure is fun to flip the balance of power back to the man for a change—especially when his woman is gorgeous, well-built, and submissive at last!

As you quilt along with this book from month to month, you'll master sewing techniques elevating in difficulty―from easy to advanced. Each project is comprised of block instructions and a pattern to finish a full-size quilt. You'll also find a comprehensive section on quilting basics and plenty of tips on organizing your own virtual bee.“A modern bee: quilters connect only by Internet and snail mail, each month a “host” chooses a block, others work that block to return to the “host” for assembly.... Conner, a writer/editor/quilter/blogger, produces a well-crafted guidebook based on her online bee, the Mod Stitches. Members designed a baker’s dozen patterns—one for each month, plus one for gift-giving or charity fundraising—that would work well for the modern bee as well as for individual quilters.”—Publishers Weekly
