      Cheers Barry,I will certainly catch you next time.

       

      After 15 years away it was interesting to see what constitutes Manufacturers weathering closup. A Bachmann Deltic in amongst there display was enough to convince me we will be busy for along time yet.I hope you had a good show Barry your stand was like the bar in a really good pub ,four deep and queuque of eager punters.Long may it continue.

      The dog(Eric) paints himself Blue quite often.Or at least he matches the garden gate. A Celt in a previous life perhaps. My Fading was cured at teatime.

    Now does anyone know of a good clock supplier. I require a clock with at least 10 more minutes in every hour and if at all possible several more hours within the daylight periods. If any of you know of such a supplier please get in touch before i attempt to build one.Pictures to follow.
