[modeleng] Re: Midland Model Engineering Exhibiton

Hi Ron,

Might be ~~~ very poor but then thats what would you expect from a club run 
by a very narrow minded clique.  LBSC would have described then as being 
'hall porters and no leaders'

Am I sounding cynical.

Hi Ian

When you say "some of the club stands were poor" you weren't perchance
referring to the well-known West Midlands club , that had a loco straight of
the track, covered in soot and cinders and without so much as a wipe over
before going on show?  :-)

Regards
Ron
