      Put some decent tunes on the Stereo as well and it can be quite therapeutic

      LNER4479

      I hope the Duchesses don't go 'woohoo'. The Stanier 'ooter is much more of a distinctive sound than that...

    2. Barry O

      Barry O

      oh yes they do do a nice Stanier sound!

  6. Barry O

    Its JAnuary so time for me to start sending out demonstrator invites for Warley in.... November....

      Some of us have never done any of that stuff ourselves - and probably never will - so I don't know what's involved.

       

      However, the "lead times" sound scary. Some people find it hard to plan their movements 2 months ahead - never mind 10 months.

       

      I wouldn't expect to see names etc. at this stage - but, if we're looking at a lot of the usual suspects, there should be a good mix of skills.

       

      I'm looking forward to this year's show.

    2. Barry O

      Barry O

      Huw, planning started last year before the last show. More things to have a go at this year...

    3. Huw Griffiths

      Huw Griffiths

      I can believe what you're saying - certainly when I've been to this show, it's always come across as well planned etc..

       

      I'm just glad that I'm never likely to find out what's involved in putting a show like this together.

       

      Regards,

       

      Huw.
