ESNG PlayDay – 13 November 2016
Another excellent afternoon playing trains. Even more paying members that the last PlayDay – 15 – plus 3 visitors. The treasurer was there to collect the money, too! Miles was in attendance, as evidenced by this partly demolished cake….. Graham and Dave … Continue reading
