I should have mentioned that the fiddleyard conversion was done when I was suffering from an eye complaint called PCO which meant the vision in my right eye was pretty blurred. This morning I had the laser treatment and all of a sudden I can see both clearly and brightly again. Seeing the difference I am amazed that I actually made a reasonable job of it.

Ray H. the liner is made by Gardman and is 1.5m x 0.6m NOT the circles, bought in my local garden centre Farm Shop. I remove any of the sisally string bits and the depending on where on the layout its going give it a watery wash of some shade of green. In this case it was a wash the same colour as I painted the backscene which was Tamiya Flat Green. Hope this helps.

A Happy New Year RMWebbers Over the festive season I've been continuing work on the fiddleyard, mainly the bridge which like the rest of the scenery has been built out of leftovers from the layout proper and bits and pieces of plasticard etc.. Not finiished yet, not painted or stuck down.

Just thought I drop this in as you indulge me my occassional photos of Blackney. Wishing Tony and Mo and all other Wright Writers a Happy Christmas. I think the photo was taken at the beginning of that very cold winter of 1963.
