It has been a few weeks since I posted an update about the Weston 2014 event. It has definitely been a busy time. The show has started to take shape with a number of RMWeb users set to attend. "Up the Line", "Wheelock Mill" and "Werrington Road" will all be representing this website at the event in November. A further RMWeb layout could be confirmed within the next few days. I also have one or two other layouts on the "probable" list that just need final confirmation and I hope to do this soon.

Things have rather been on hold though. The first house move finally took place at the end of February and we are now residing in my Grandfather's bungalow until the end of May. Following the move we had a couple of weeks without the internet which did hold things up. Since the move things have got hectic at work. We returned after the half term break to an announcement from our head teacher that she is to retire in July. Over the last few weeks we have all been nervously checking out the applicants who have been touring the school. After a lot of soul searching I put in an application for the job. Sadly I was not shortlisted!

If that was not enough Ofsted landed on our doorstep for two days earlier in the week. We seem to have done ok but we await the final report after a stressful time.

With all that in mind it is no wonder I have not had time to chase layouts or follow up earlier enquiries. Hopefully with the Easter holiday just around the corner I can find some time to catch up.

What I do know is that we still need some more layouts, especially some smaller micro layouts which would suit the corridors. If there is anyone out there......

The layout:

Following the move Skaleby West is stored in the spare bedroom. It is behind a large pile of storage boxes and so is not accessible. There is simply no chance of any modelling work during our stay here. At least the new house will be ready a month early so fingers crossed I can crack on with the layout extension during the June half term and the summer break. There may still be a chance that I can unveil an extended Skaleby West at this year's event.

Until next time..
