There is a plan for another Virtual Show like the one we created in July. We should be able to advise of the date in the not too distant. Some interesting things are already lined up. 23 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if you need volunteers, but i’m willing to help if theres anything I can do... At a minimum I could make a virtual cuppa.. VTea anyone?

Oh I could though caution... my layout isn't conventional... its a real trainset... 3 levels of badly laid track in several circles, mad gradients, a triangle, 8 shape and line where things go, never seem to come back. lots of track, trains to a timetable not so much scenery and 200% more rolling stock than necessary. its not hugely photogenic, many laughable qualities but i’m game to have fun. consider it more from the John Sargent school of Strictly Come dancing.. My rolling stock collection though makes up for it, Ive several prized pieces. if I've not oversold it, I don't mind giving it ago... 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Huw Griffiths Posted September 4, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) Andy, Don't worry - I saw the comment for what it was - I also knew exactly where you were coming from. I could add that, over the years, I've had a lot of grief from some people about my sense of humour (it's dryer than my taste in lager - and often darker than Guinness). Anyway, I'd better get back to some stuff I need to sort out at home. Come to think of it, one of these days, I wouldn't mind getting round to building that long-planned layout. What was I thinking of calling it? That's right ... "Missen Summit". Regards, Huw. Edited September 7, 2020 by Huw Griffiths 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a different note, I can only hope nobody says anything about any mention of "submissions".

I can remember 1976. Went to Guernsey on 'holiday' and didn't get the convertible sports car I'd booked for several days - had a tin can instead - then got the sports car and it absolutely tipped down with rain. Hada long drive round the island in pouring rain with the hood down - it was cool for the first time in weeks. Oh sorry this is about the next virtual exhibition - yes please, great stuff. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
