Back to matters at hand. We had the first Tuesday meeting here at Llechryd, and spent the evening assembling flat-pack units to make a work area for the upstairs hobby room. couple of pictures showing progress so far. My wife Annie kindly came up with fish and chips half way through the evening, which should have been washed down with a nice cup of tea, but we had to make do with a 2013 Granache. Can't have everything I guess.
This end of the room will be the working end:

and this will be the leisure end, should we happen to have time for a break...

Colin meanwhile has been busy with his paintbrush, and finally finished the exquisite showmans engine that he built from scratch. He brought it along to show Pat and I - photos' below:

Just a couple of pictures of the group and part of the walk:
