hayfield Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Hi Hayfield, this area group is predominantly for Kent, Surrey and Sussex based members - Watford is a bit "out of district" sorry. Sorry I saw South East (as we are in the South East) without looking at your map, cannot remove reply so changed the message. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanRogers Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 You've already got Surrey Area Group of the 7mm Narrow Gauge Association, so well done! We've got fabulously elastic borders, currently stretching to include members in Kent, West Sussex, East Sussex, Hampshire, Buckinghamshire and ... Cornwall!

RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted April 24, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 24, 2014 Might be worth suggesting as a topic in itself, expanding beyond this area and organising in regions or counties to make searching easier? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cromptonnut Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 I don't know if it's worth fully duplicating the information already available via UKModelshops (although I can understand why some would prefer to stay on one site rather than going elsewhere) or a simple Google search but it may be a useful feature to the site. The difficulty of course is maintaining it as invariably contacts change and clubs come and go, and they forget to or simply don't know everywhere it is mentioned. However, one thing is fairly apparent from our three south eastern counties - there are many active model clubs and it is a very healthy scene.
