The Chuffers weekly evening meeting this week was changed to a daytime one, in order to give Pete a hand in painting the new building that he has had put up at the end of Login Station.

This was the early stages of the construction:


I hasten to point out that the C-D's were not involved in this part of the operation!

When finished the building will hopefully house the Cardi-Bach Heritage Museum, providing we can get enough funding to help towards Peters substantial initial outlay - all donations are welcome and will be aknowledged one way or another.

This is the inside of the shed, yet to be lined, carpeted, and illuminated:



Back to the Chuffers - Pat, Colin, and myself gathered at Login on Tuesday morning all set for a days painting. Sod's law... as soon as we arrived, so did the rain, so the morning was spent discussing model railway matters, and indulging in coffee and cake (one member consuming more cake than was good for him...)

The weather cleared up in the afternoon, so I drove back down to Login (to escape gardening) and Pete and I got to work with the paint brushes.




Supervised by Mr Schroedinger,


















We managed to get the first coat on the gable end and one side:








Just waiting now for the next 'window of opportunity' to do the other side and end, and then the second coat.

Thanks for looking,
Shaun.
