As mentioned in my last posting we've sold our house subject to contract and have a 'chain'

formed up so it looks like we could move well before Christmas !!

It's also time to shut the holiday caravan down for winter, due to local authority regulations

the site is closed from the end of October until mid March.

On our last visit I took some of my Shillingstones Lane diorama back, I'd brought home to try

and do some work, but didn't get much done. When there I lined all 6 small sections together

to see what it may look like ....... Well blow me down, the wife liked it and suggested that I build

another track base that I can link it all together !!

So during next year my thatched cottage piece will be finished & a new base made.

Meanwhile I still have too much to do on Castell Mawr.

Sometimes I wonder why I have so many locos, coaches & wagons as I enjoy making up scenes

more than running trains !!
