Had a good evening at the model railway society last night, for those don't know (although it is still true for those who already know) I am the chairman of the High Wycombe and District MRS (you can also see my blog on behalf of the MRS layouts Hinton Parva here ) the club is going from strength to strength at the moment and are just putting the finishing touches to the doubling of our clubroom to 4500sq ft which has required quite a lot of refurbishment.

The new wiring in the new room went live a couple of weeks ago and last night we had running cold water in the new kitchen / bistro area for the first time. Following the laying of the new flooring in the workshop area at the weekend the workbenches and some of the machine tools have been positioned in their new home.

Hinton Parva was having its last full practice run before it heads off on its travels to the Farnham show in a couple of week time. If you are planning a visit to the show come and say hello.

Blandford St Mary the club's British O gauge layout was also having finishing touches added to it prior to it going out to the Berkhamstead exhibition on the same Saturday.

All in all a good evening.
