You can't have too much cake, I'm sure any surplus will be found a home.

 

RMWeb or SWAG cannot be held responsible for any weight gain resulting from over consumption.

 

Peter.

 

Always happy to help with excess cakeage...

 

I'll be there as early as possible on Saturday, ideally arriving just after Andy Y has set out the tables and chairs ;-)

 

Plan is to bring a couple of micro layouts and some other modelling projects.

Try to come Sunday Phil, it's probably a better day...

Just bring cake. Vlad the Impaler and Kim Jong-Un always bring cake and they get in.

Oh deer.  I know it's in Spring, bok, but who invited Vlad the Impala? ;)

As reported on my topic, Helstonish is as ready as its going to be for its trip to Sundays event.

 

I have found a few more problems over the last few days of frantic effort. Some have been resolved, others we will have to live with for the time being, but they will get sorted eventually.

 

What has been pleasing is how much the layout has come to life when we got around to adding a population, and their detritus.

 

A couple of pics as tasters, from the side you won't be seeing -

As I've only just got over a cold, and been unable to sort out my printer driver,I'll not have much in the way of information to display.

 

So please, please come and have a chat. I know this was never started as an exhibition piece, and is our progress with  effectively a re-entry into modelling, on a limited budget. But I'm hoping somebody may see some potential in it, and that sharing it with those who attend could lead to more interaction and raise standards in the future.

 

To-morrow it all gets packed up ready, must remember to charge the vans battery!

 

See you Sat night/Sunday morning.

Ditto Palin's Yard, I've just had a frustrating day trying to apply a sky back scene, and failing pretty miserably, more thought needed when it all gets ripped off after the weekend.

 

Last minute tidy up and test due tomorrow morning and the load ready to start the journey down tomorrow night, I don't have to worry about populating the layout as there's only one bloke on it at the moment, but it should be working, after a fashion, though fitting couplings isn't going well with a non- functioning hand.

 

Hope to see lots of you on Saturday night and Sunday, come and have a chat.

I shall probably bring a few other half finished projects along as well.

Really looking forward to the weekend! :-)  It's the great disassembly of the layout this evening and I can pick up the hire van tomorrow morning.  Lets hope everything fits in the van, Sherton Abbas has never left the confines of the workshop before!

Thats stunning.

 

I thought the fact that mine was not intended, and never had left home was my get out of jail card.

You've just trumped that.

 

I look forward to seeing it in the flesh

Good news / Bad News

 

GOOD  -  The vans packed, although it took all day to dismantle, and load etc.

 

BAD  -  too late to get to Bristol Exibition and (Mrs) to bake cake.

 

GOOD  - CAKE WON its cooking now!

 

 

At least it'll save me a few quid.

 

See you Saturday / Sunday

Bit more tinkering to do tomorrow before myself and Sheep Lane make our way.
