last week I ordered some pre made grass clumps from Tajima1 Miniatures on ebay http://stores.ebay.com/tajima1miniatures/

1st set was heather moss base http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271693181324?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=570548963354&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

2nd set was XL lavender (which I am using as heather clumps) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271385151333?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=570259461076&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

well with the trapped nerve & with some pain I made it up into the loft to put the clumps onto the layout here are some photos taken with my Phone

I am that bored that even in pain I had to do something
So I have drilled 4 holes in the layout 2 for Station signals & 2 for the switches to work them (still to wire them up)
The signals are 2x Dapol N-gauge LMS home signals

here we have the up home

I used my phone with the lens at the bottom to give me the low level shots

well managed to wire up the signals & switch

Very easy to wire up there are 4 wires 2 yellow plus one red & one black
the red & black are wired to 16v AC & the 2 yellows go to the same push to make switch

To make the signal move you press the switch then when you want to move it back you press the switch again the part of the signal under the baseboard dose all the switching over

signals at red

Very nice, Brian. Since I'm a signalling nut which you may remember from my threads, I love seeing working signals. And including lights! They are N scale signals, am I correct? The size is quite good for 009. Well done, continue the good work!
