Today I went to open up the caravan for the 2014 season. The site is closed from the end of October until 16th March. Tucked under the double bed is my Shillingstones Lane diorama that I'm looking forward to working on again as I extend to double the original length.

Here is the first half, photographed back in June last year. Loads of green fields with bronze age barrow & other

hidden shapes in a field.

I have contemplated adding a simple roundy extension behind a high green hill to allow a continious tail chaser, but also the scope to change stock & loco ?

The caravan needs some attention, but at least it survived the storms of spring 2014,
