SUNDAY 19TH DECEMBER 2010

Unfortunately, due to the severe weather conditions late Saturday it was reluctantly decided to cancel the Santa Specials for today. We are running an extra day now on Thursday 23rd December, see website for details. Several volunteers were unable to even get out of the village last night and spent the night in carriages. I am five miles away and we followed a snow plough out of our village this morning so we could check the sitation at the Railway. It was a 7" deep blanket.

MODEL RAILWAY SHED

The shed has now been insulated and had the interior walls boarded with chipboard, work is underway to plasterboard the ceiling and walls.

LET IT SNOW

Saturday evening we held our Christmas dinner and Annual Awards evening at the White Horse, Ridgewell , an entertaining evening all round. This week has been taken up with preparations for the Santa Specials which start on Sunday 5th. The trains have been decorated - all that up and down putting the trimmings up is good exercise! Just a blitz on snow-clearing Saturday to do now.
