Hi Jim, yep final plan assuming no disasters.

Not sure there's much we need other than a couple of electric sockets?

Coming back the same day, or perhaps on Sunday?

I will be uploading photos to my Flickr site late Monday or sometime Tuesday

Can I also say a big WELL DONE to everyone who organised the Meet and the meal at the Chinese. Good company, good food and talk of trains (most of the time) what more could you ask for?

Thanks too to all those who helped with our modular setup, bringing modules, or coming and helping us play trains. :D
