Cheltenham Model Railway Show (Glos. UK) 30/31 Oct 2010
« on: October 29, 2010, 10:23:09 AM »
Just a heads up to let you all know that there is a model railway show at St Margarets Hall this weekend in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.

I know - model railways - but I'll be there all weekend demonstrating modelling and painting techniques, mostly Wild West buildings, figures and railroads  :)

Come along - you might even pick up a few useful bits and pieces.

What times?  Is this the hall in Hatherley?

Small world indeed as I used to live in Cheltenham and still work there, but now live in Tewkesbury.

Will mention the show to my father, who is the railway modeller in the family.

OK I don't live in the 'Nam but I am only down the road in Evesham, alas I am not so bothered with Model Railways.

Well, I'm not 'from' Cheltenham, but rather at university here.

I assume this is the website;
http://www.cheltmodrail.org.uk/

I'll probably be there Saturday, around 1ish.

Hi, not sure if you knew, but there are two wargames groups in this fair town.  I'll send details if you are interested.

Hi,

Just a quick update

Thanks to the couple of LAF members who made it - good to put names and faces together.

The show raised £1500 for CLIC (Cancer and Leukaemia in Children).

Thanks again guys

Nice to see you again.  Nice to realise that some members are nearly neighbours.
