+ | Whilst restrictions are in place, we are using Zoom video calls. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Previously, meetings were 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 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. | ||
