RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted February 23, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 23, 2019 No idea, David. Now, back to the food. I road tested a piece of chicken and ham pie today. It was very good indeed, up to the usual standards in fact, but there is a soupcon of suspicion in my own mind that I might need to conduct a further test. 1 1 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else spot the link here? Oh and chaps - it looks as though I can get there for 11.00 by using the first train down from Paddlingtown and an uber to get to the hall fairly swiftly. Failing which Plan B is of course to head down on Saturday. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted March 10, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 10, 2019 Hi all, As suggested by the good Captain himself, we would like to invite members who will be attending the SWAG event to bring their Cakebox Challenge entries to form a display. These can be from 2018, or the Q1 2019 challenges. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted March 10, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) Hi Pete, It's a private exhibition and friendly meeting of RMweb members and their guests. We even allow members to visit from north of the M4. Most visitors will report it is one of the best days in the exhibition calendar, the chance to play trains in a convivial atmosphere with like minded souls, enjoy some delicious pies, pasties and cakes and purchase some much needed items from our guest traders. Please browse the threads from previous years to get a feel for the day. (2018) For those of a more adventurous spirit (and are able to spend some extra brownies points), on the preceding Saturday members have been known to take a trip on the WSR, join the Taunton MRG in their clubrooms on Bishops Lydeard Station then retire to a local hostelry for a meal. This year it's in the Lethbridge Arms, Bishop's Lydeard. Please, if you can, do come, you will enjoy it.

RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted March 10, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 10, 2019 I thoroughly agree with Stubbers. Much more of a social than an exhibition. Dashed good clean fun... Rob 1 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Gwiwer Posted March 10, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 10, 2019 I have even been known to come all the way from Australia to attend. The convenient timing of family events was merely coincidental. Always a good day out. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted March 11, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 11, 2019 Well, we have a volunteer to man the Bring & Buy stall, so please get searching for all those items you no longer need and would like to pass on, for a small fee, to other members. Also, we're still hoping you can bring a cake with you on the day, all proceeds again from both these will go to our nominated charity. Full details of the exhibitors, demonstrators and traders soon, so you can get your pre-show orders placed. Please note , Chris & Sam from KMRC will not be attending this year, some waffle about a new shop in Suwwey, so we have a new trader.... thanks to Bleaty-Boyo for his assistance in this. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noooooooo Will certainly miss the chance to buy their preproduction samples!
