Mulgabill Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Having looked, unsccessfully, for a SWAG 2019 Sales Form, could I appeal for a link = if said form exists. Don't want to waste valuable pasty/cake eating time writing out sales lists on the day. All the best to all who are coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold john new Posted April 24, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 24, 2019 Can we just turn up on the day as viewers or do we have to book in? Won't know until the day whether I am free or still finishing off work on editing the next SLS Journal. That will have to be my priority over a day off. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amongst the flurry of activity on the layout, I have also spared some time to make my badge. My mum kindly attached a new fabric loop in the form of a bunch of owls... guess that'll make me a twit (twoo)...

Funnily enough, where we've just been for a short holiday (hence the near radio silence since Good Friday) has one of those. I though it was the only train on the island but when we got back today the ever-reliable (?) Wikipedia told me that between the wars there had been a narrow-gauge line about 30 km long (WP said 3 ft gauge but given the history of the place metre-gauge would be more likely). A loco is plinthed at the former Northern terminus. Can you guess where we were? Do you want to? Do you care? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
