Hi, That was due to me. I noticed that the show (I'm a member of the same club as Ian) didn't appear in the forthcoming events section so I added a thread. As it turned out the forthcoming events section wasn't working properly at the time but is now. Regards Nick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our club members are generally helpful so here is a link to the photos in the other topic about the show. The photos in the other thread are of these layouts:- * Loftus Road from Worthing MRC; * Eight Dollar Canyon from Carshalton & Surrey MRC; * Titherleigh from Liphook & District MRC; * Sherton Abbas by David Stone from the Principality. regards, Graham Beare Edited March 11, 2020 by Western Star Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Barry Ten Posted March 11, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 11, 2020 Dave and I will be there with Sherton Abbas - we're very much looking forward to it and I know Dave's got some new wagons and loads to play with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIK Posted March 12, 2020 Author Share Posted March 12, 2020 Hi, I've heard from my club's chairman that our show at Basingstoke is going ahead at the weekend (unless official advice changes from that at the PM's press briefing at 5pm).

Cheers, Dave. Hi, The government press conference at 5pm today was four hours after the deadline for ordering bread from the cash and carry. There's enough for exhibitors and more but trying to estimate how many visitors will turn up is difficult. This show was supposed to be a crunch year for the BNHMRS for fund raising for our new club hut (the existing one is so old we are not sure when it was built but its like Trigger's broom). Maybe the traders will be even more aggressive with their discounts if medium term trading prospects are uncertain. I'm thinking of putting a washing up bowl and towels behind Beggarwood Lane (one of the club's layouts) as precautionary measure. We might put the goods yard operator back inside the layout instead of next to the public. Regards Nick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIK Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share Posted March 15, 2020 Hi, I've heard that due to cutting back to £1300 on catering expenditure our club may have broken even on the catering. Our club has been saving up for a new club hut. In order to keep up with building cost inflation I think it would be fair to say our club has been pursuing a medium to high risk strategy on exhibition expenditure. Its worked well for many years but this time its not so clear. Will have to wait for the post exhibition general meeting for the details. I liked the working colour light signalling on the Hornby magazine layout but I didn't have time to study any other layouts. Regards Nick 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcoblanco Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Well done on a great show, fantastic layouts for me with lots of diesels!! Quite high prices for secondhand stock on most of the stalls resulting in no purchases for me.. But alas house prices in Basingstoke are quite high these days!
