The day went well..

So back from a bit of an epic journey north to the 2mm Expo hosted by the Keighley Club (thanks for that) , via a rather long winded journey starting at 6:38am not helped by having been out for one too many sherberts the night before and not getting to bed till 3am. But the journey went well with a range of transports to an from the venue. Have to say the Keighley Club space is great, lots of it! and looks out over the KWVR :)

 

I now see didn't take as many pictures as I thought I had and was obviously gassing way too much! but I enjoyed the whole experience and chance to speak to the good and the great of the 2mmSA was worth the ticket price itself. I have included a couple of pictures of things that took my eye as I am sure that there will be far better versions over on this thread

 

Was great to have a chat with 2mmAndy about my impending build of a Bob Jones J72 and feel a little less daunted now, so just waiting for the parts to turn up and then I can get started.

 

Then there was the shop.. oh dear oh dear.. I spent quite a bit, but then make hay whilst the sun shines is my motto :lol: I brought some loco jigs for the J72 and some NER Hopper wagons and chassis but forgot the wheels Doh! actually run out of money at that point, some drop-in wheelsets for my farish DBS Class 66 a back to back gauge and some items for a possible 2011 Challenge idea B)

 

So fired up once again and just off to heat up the soldering iron and have a go at Point 6..
