After being in our present Club rooms for a few years - we are on the move as of 12th January.

The space available to us is larger than our current club rooms and is in a Grade 1 listed building! (with no heating) This does have its problems as we have to sign in and out of the building via the security gate.

If any one wants to visit please PM me but I would suggest that you wait until mid Feb to give us time to get the place sorted and layouts up.

As it is we are already looking at how we :

1 extend Regis Bay O gauge
2 complete our two new 00 layouts - Chapel en le Frith (coming along see separate thread) and Bournemouth West
3 complete our "learner/junior" layout
4 Start a new 3mm layout - done!

and that's in between all of the other bits and bobs in N gauge

We expect to be holding an Open Day at some point this year - more news later.

Our first visit from Charlie Petty (dc kits and d&e videos) this week who stumbled across someone who could get him into the Building thus avoiding the security men ringing the Police.

 

We will be having an open day at some point once we have got the electrics sorted and the floor cleaned.

 

Will keep you posted

I'd like to come down at some point too, I asked about it a while ago and never got chance but if I'm not working on meeting evenings I'd like to meet some fellow moddlers.

We are now sorted in our new club room.  Work is ongoing with layouts in N, 3mm, OO, S4 and O gauge.

 

We meet at Temple Works Leeds on Wednesday evening - the door is manned from 7:30 to 8 then we have a door bell - as we are up 2 flights of stairs it may take a while to get to the door - we use the artist entrance (!) not the double front door.  If you are coming along please pm me first as we residein a Grade 1 Listed Building Site so juniors under 16 are not allowed currently.

With the weather prospects not too good for the weekend out Open Day should be worth a visit. Car park is at the rear of the building via a side entrance off Marshall Street.
