RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted May 15, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION This is only a potential Member's Day, as we have no idea what possible restrictions may be in place. Also, this is much later in the year so there will be much less in the way of additional entertainment during the weekend. However, initial reaction has been mostly positive, despite the closeness of some other planned shows, such as RailEx Taunton and Warley. We are of course also planning for the usual last Sunday in April next year (24th). So, nothing is definite, but expressions of interest for layouts, trade & demos have already been made and more are welcome.

RMweb Gold Huw Griffiths Posted May 16, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) Due to caring commitments, I've never been able to get to these in the past. Now that I no longer have these commitments, I'd really like to get to this event, if I can find some way of getting there (I don't have access to a car). Since I don't have a layout - and I wouldn't be able to promise any demonstrations (mainly because I haven't had chance to do any modelmaking recently) - I'm talking as a potential visitor. Time will tell if I actually get there - and if we're even allowed model shows etc - although I obviously hope so. All the best, Huw.

RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted May 31, 2021 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted May 31, 2021 IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT We are unable to book Staplegrove for 7th November. This leaves us with 3 options: 1. Move the date 2. Move the venue 3. Cancel the idea and concentrate on the usual date in April I don't think moving the date will work, as other shows are starting to be planned. Similarly I don't think changing the venue is a good idea as it would prevent several non-drivers attending, plus is a complete unknown. So, and I've already had two quite strong votes for this, the best option is to cancel this potential Member's Day. Apologies all round. 7 1 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Donw Posted May 31, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 31, 2021 Ah well tis a shame. Yes we should have a good show April 2022. If any of you are likely to go to railex Taunton at the end of October (dont have the exact dates yet) we hope to be running the show. The school are keen to host it and layout keen to attend so fingers crossed. I will be there probably on the door part of the time. Do say hello if you come.
