Slow summer

My modelling is normally quite slow in the summer, I tend to amuse myself with the usual modelling forum trawling, reading, doodling and my other hobbies. So progress is generally slow in the summer, especially when it's near 30 degrees fairly regularly! Too nice to be sat at the modelling bench.

I've now got a date sorted to go and look at the drawings at Kew, there are some other items there associated with the line on Skye, company papers and such. How useful any of it will be is beyond me until I get there, hopefully it's going to be clear enough to be of interest though.

I'm slowly working on a new blog, i rather feel that this one has run it's course, covering the planning of the layout and a bit of history of the line. I'm going to make a fresh start for the construction phase, so keep an eye out for a new link if you link to this one at the mo. I'll do a specific post linking to the new one when it's ready.

In 'other' news, I recently accepted an invite to an exhibition at Valkenburg in Holland with Dunbracken, it should be fun going abroad with the layout, especially as I get to see Ted Polet's Dunalastair!
