Todays post is mainly imagery. Not much modelling done as here in the UK it is a Bank Holiday weekend - the last before the 25th December - (I am not mentioning that word yet but no doubt by September there will be adverts for it!) so I have spent a bit of time out and about.
One thing I did do whilst back at WMD HQ was to film some operation on the USA Switching layout that I last talked about back in April. The WMD Trainee Film Crew attempted filming a local driver undergoing training on switching duties! Some of the better clips are in this film which you can watch by clicking on the white arrow head. The Trainee Film Crew will have to do better next time but at least its more exciting then watching paint dry - just!
One of the places Mrs Woody has wanted to visit for some time are the walled gardens at a place called Easton just off the A1 in Lincolnshire. Usually Mrs W's choices of places to visit are very good and she didn't fail in that in finding this place.
Up until the early 1950s there was a manor house which unfortunately and like so many others, was demolished. The gardens survived but became derelict until restoration work started in 2000. They are now lovely and there are 12 acres to explore. The website has full details and you can visit it by clicking here. In the meantime a selection of photos below which always make you wish you could model the landscape as exquisitely as nature created it!
With all that grass you have to included some modern way of maintaining it and this is one of two robotic lawnmowers - nice! Now if only Mrs W could see the virtue.....
