16 August 2014, Ice Cream, Jelly and Trains in Sussex
A gathering of guests invited by Chris Ford and
Nigel Hill to play and talk trains, and to consume jelly & ice cream took
place at a secret location in Mid-Sussex on the 16th August.
Although I’ve been invited before, this was the first time I had managed to get
to this exclusive gathering. The “invite conditions” are that you have to bring
a layout or something to show and I must admit I was not sure how my table of
009 stock would be received, however everyone either approved or were too
polite to indicate otherwise. Hurrah! The company was outstanding as was the
quality of the items brought along to show, and the hospitality of the hosts:
Chris, Nigel, Karen and Mrs Ford senior, who all worked ceaselessly all day
replenishing the food and the teapot was fantastic. A splendid party indeed and
huge thanks for the invitation!
