    Hi there folks, thanks for the invite Toto, I,m looking forward to contributing to this new forum, to those who don,t know me I am 61, a full time carer for my wife Karen and I model in O gauge and OO to a lesser extent, ( my local model railway club only model in OO so I bought some 4mm to use on their layouts when I joined them), I have two layouts, Wheeldon Mill in 7mm, and Lockoford Yard a 4mm shunting plank, I will post photos of both when I have sussed out how to do it.....

    Cheers, Pete.

    Hi Pete,

    It's excellent to have you on board kind Sir. I'm looking forward to playing catch up with everyone. It's been a bit manic here for the first while as things have been getting organised but our team of whizz kids have done us proud.

    When we first started things were a lot more basic but slowly but surely things have been falling into place and the forum has become a lot more feature rich.

    You'll note a lot of familiarities to YMRC but we hope to put our own stamp on it as well to make it more user friendly and hopefully let the members engage a lot more into how we operate.

    If I am reading the comments correctly, I think we have an image gallery which is now useable. I'd maybe wait for further conformation of that but it looks like we are good to go.

    That being the case it will now be back to what we do best........post and enjoy the crack.

    Cheers for now

    Toto

    Hi Ron, yes Spalding seems ages ago and Warley too. I,ve been looking at the events guide in Railway Modeller and I can,t find anywhere to go until February apart from Doncaster toy and train fair end of Dec` We usually go to Newark on New Years day but Donny is closer with more tables and it is the same price to enter :thumbup:.

    Hi what I was trying to do was put more info about myself and hopefully input an avatar but nothing happened when I clicked on the different sections, real name, date of birth etc, I will try again and see what happens-I will let you know.

    Ok Pete, instead of just viewing your profile , At the bottom of any Page ,on the R/H/ Side you see a menu. . click on 'My Account' and your profile details are there to edit

    Let me know if this works ok Mate

    Cheers

    Matt
