-Meetings are held around once a quarter at West Calder Community Centre.  January (AGM), April, July and October. +
- +
-These are more formal than the workshops but still remain a relaxed and inviting affair. +
- +
-Here we can listen to down to earth talks on key parts of electronics in model railway layouts from people who really know their stuff. +
- +
-It is a chance to quiz these people too and present our own experiences without fear of ridicule or embarrassment.  They are experts for a reason - probably because as we are all experiencing going down the same journey - it is just that some have spend longer than others on that journey and are at different stations down the line.  +
-==== Workshops ==== +
- +
-[[https://sites.google.com/site/mergeastscotland/home/workshop|Click here for future workshops]] +
- +
-Workshops are held around once a month 10:30 to 15:30. +
- +
-We normally start with a coffee as everyone arrives and then chat through the aims of the day and who will do what and who will supervise and assist when needed. +
- +
-Lunch does happen but the timing depends on what each of us is up to.  But it is a good time to talk through issues you may be having with your home layout.  No over-bearing advice - just friendly options.+
