ESNG meeting – 4 November 2020

A pre-lockdown special tonight.  Not that lockdown makes any difference to Zoom…. We peaked at nine persons logged in (plus one cat), and the conversation even touched upon railways once or twice.  By the time we’ve all talked about lockdown, … Continue reading

Covid-19 diary #30

Still no modelling progress.  It’s been great to see some of the club on Zoom, but I’m pining for club nights and exhibitions – and that’s a surprise for an anti-social loner like myself!  Still – I have read a … Continue reading

ESNG meeting – 21 October 2020

A record breaking evening on Zoom.   We started with just the four of us.  That included an impressive display with John and Alpenbahn, and five trains running around.  Paul was on-line, but no trains running, due to some wiring issues … Continue reading

Covid-19 diary #29 – Planning failures!

ESNG meeting – probably no?

Well, having read and reread the government guidance, I’ve reluctantly concluded that we can only entertain 6 members at a meeting at present.  If we have more than 6, we have to have 2 groups and they are not allowed … Continue reading

ESNG meeting – yes, no yes?
