RMweb Premium eldavo Posted October 21, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 21, 2013 I suppose I better get Cramdin out of store and do something with it. Not quite sure what but there must be something! I have no doubt my operating team (PhilH) will have sorted out a brand new operating sequence. Looking forward to a good show.

Not quite sure what but there must be something! Dave I've been spending time cleaning up Bridport, evicting the spiders, hoovering up the cobwebs and cleaning spider-poo off the backscene... Working on the stock now, gluing back coach windows that had fallen it etc. Looking forward to seeing Cramdin, I followed its development on the Forum but I've never actually seen it. Cheers, Dave.

St. Simon Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Hi, Just over a week now until Wycrail, I have been in contact with the public catering manager and it seems that organisation and most importantly, the cakes, are coming along very nicely indeed! If you want to sample the famous Wycrail cakes, please come long at 10:00 to Cressex Community school in High Wycombe, next Saturday! Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to sample the famous Wycrail cakes, please come long at 10:00 to Cressex Community school in High Wycombe, next Saturday! Simon Simon, I worry that the cakes maybe a little stale by next Saturday. Rock cakes anyone? Edit for auto incorrections! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruffalo Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 There is just a chance that Gruffalo will manage to get there with a couple of little Gruffs! If I get more positives, I will place some equipment orders from traders in advance (paint and tortoises are required). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruffalo Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Little Gruffs like sausages, ribs and Grandma Gruff's apple crumble with ice cream and custard; large Gruffs are pleased by whatever they can scavenge (within reason) and normally prefer to wash down calories with a traditional cask bitter. Sadly, this large Gruff cannot drink when carrying the little Gruffs around the highways and byways to reach HW. As for possible purchases, seems none of the trade stands will stock Phoenix-Precision Paints but I will be looking for paint brushes and tweezers / clamps / files / solder / flux. I may defer getting Tortoises. I will be talking to DCC Supplies about possibly sound-equipping Bachmann Prairie and Hall, could do with some loco crews too! These may take second place to a good pastie (I doubt the Captain's own personal supplier will be shipping to this exhibition) or cream cakes and a nice cuppa tea! C U there!

Gruffalo Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Gruff Another of the traders - Brunswick Railways - also do Precision Paints. HTH Thanks Graham, Brunswick very responsive to a telephone call, should be collecting my paint requirements so many thanks for your suggestion. Just hope there isn't too great a run on Loco Crews (unless they are all quaffing some of that "full bodied" scrumpy referred to in Post 45, in which case they will either have fallen on the floor or having the trots to one of Stubbie's escaped from DitD 4mm 'loos).
