Had a small, but fun open day, with some passing trade! The sun shone on 53 and 225, and a good time was had by all, still raised about £45, so 53 is moving forward.Good food as well, thanks to Tony Bs daughter and Tesco!. Thank you to all members who helped, it can't happen without you!

Here is a new font again, is this more legible??? Open day Sunday from 2pm, till 4.30pm, not sure about weather! Had a very nice reception at the Worthing Moldel Engineer's club last night, I think most folks stayed awake during my tram rap, and they gave us a fantastic donation of £50, thank you gents, the wood fund grows!

Saw the article in Old Glory, today, great stuff, though I say it myself, we have also received £100 from the Editor, Colin Tyson, thank you sir!

Am trying new a font today, this is courier! Let me know if it is easier to read.
