RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted July 21, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 21, 2013 Popped over to Bath yesterday. Ok so not a Welsh exhibition but went to a small exhibition called Larkrail. Organised by Simon Castens from the Titfield Thunderbolt book shop. Highlight was without doubt Polbrock Gurney by Chris Nevard. Every bit as good as it looks in the comics.....then some. The overall look of the layout is spot on, with stock,buildings all blending in so well. Other highlight was Tucking Mill. Light railway in 2mm finescale. Lovely. Popped into Bath itself. Visited Bath Green Park station to find a farmers market on the go. Browny points from Memsahib. Found stall selling home made chocolate. Filthy. More browny points. Nipped down to Midford and surrounding area. Walk along canal then home. A good day all round. Rob 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike morley Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) I've just noticed that this August Bank Holiday's Corris show is billed as being at The Plas in Mach, rather than its usual venue at the school next to Corris station. An admittedly very quick trawl through here finds no other mention of this so I'm not sure if this is news or yet another case of me being a bit fick. I now click "post" fully expecting to be told that the venue changed last year, when I couldnt go . . . Edited to add that I've snce had a deeper trawl but still have found no other mention of the change of venue.

mikeyk Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Hi Mike Morley I picked up a leaflet at the Aberaeron show yesterday for the Machynlleth show, and it's definitely at The Plas. I checked the venue's website and the exhibition is mentioned there as well. http://www.plasmachynlleth.co.uk/index.php/en/what-s-on#year=2013&month=8&day=12&view=month Purely by chance I am going to be in Machynlleth on the 24th (Saturday) for a computer type show with my son, and was pleasantly surprised to find out that the venues are almost across the road from each other! In fact I do believe the entire family is now going to come with us and have a day out! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc smith Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 .....Purely by chance I am going to be in Machynlleth on the 24th (Saturday) for a computer type show with my son, and was pleasantly surprised to find out that the venues are almost across the road from each other!... How often does THAT happen? That's surely a sign from "on high" that you should attend the exhibition Perhaps you could even convince Mrs Mikey K that it's a sign you should buy an expensive kit too?

mikeyk Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Hi Marc I had no idea the Mach show was on until I saw the leaflet. I had already got tickets for the computer show, so it was a fluke really I guess! Should be a good day out anyway 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could make you an offer you'd find hard to refuse . . . . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
