PhilEakins Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I'm gutted that I can't be with you all tomorrow, but have a great time and post lots of pictures so that I can see what I'm missing. After we pack up at the Wimborne exhibition tomorrow evening I shall be the proud possessor of 'Wadebridge 1860's' which I can bring next year if CK will allow me to bag a place. Please .. pretty please? Phil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted April 16, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 16, 2011 The good Captain usually provides a roll of sticky labels and a pen, but you have to write your own names. There are a few heading down from 'The North' and if you ask them nicely they will show you which end of the pen to hold... Hope you all have a good day and make sure there are enough pasties left over for the Captains lunch every day next week... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Kris Posted April 16, 2011 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 16, 2011 There are a few heading down from 'The North' and if you ask them nicely they will show you which end of the pen to hold... Pens not needed, as you're in the South West you will be given a potato to carve so that you can then stamp your name on the sticky label. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady_Ava_Hay Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 As always the white haired old git ( that's me ) will be there. It was a close call, I was pretty ill on Thursday night but I am sufficiently improved to attend. I will bring a couple of small sound equipped locos for a run on any DCC layouts that are there.

Kelly Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Under normal conditions, you look too young to need a walking stick. My GP initially said the same, but then I was sent to a rheaumatologist and diagnosed with fibromyalgia and I find the stick helps ease the pain somewhat and steadies me somewhat too.

Steadfast Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 All set for tomorrow. As well as Elm Park, I've got a few work in progress bits from Baby Laira coming with me. As well the stock that's been covered in the blog, there's something a little larger coming too, which hasn't been mentioned on the forum yet and is key to the setting. Hopefully it catches the character of the real thing, too See you in the morning! jo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

burgundy Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Can I add my thanks to all those involved in putting this event together. It was a very good day out with an opportunity to put faces to names (or pseudonyms). I had a number of really useful conversations, ranging from Saxon narrow gauge, through split frame chassis to Barrow Road depot ........and can I make a special mention of the chocolate cake.
