Since Grahame took over as editor of Update, there has been a big increase in N Gauge content - I've even done a couple of articles myself!

It must be time for another. Issue #65 is now at the printers but I'm already starting to put together UPDate #66 and looking for content for it. Although the theme is class 66s - anything D&E is acceptable.

I would imagine there is a members show and tell now and again?? Where members can send in pictures of there latest projects etc etc?? Aslong as it passes the editors approval first..

I should stop asking questions and just wait for the UPDATE issue to arrive

I will certainly try and get some back issues from the last couple of years or maybe right back to issue 1

I read that they are currently looking at getting issue onto CD ?? That's a really good idea and will be available to members.....Hey Adam.....I may even get round to finishing that Class 310 soon and show it off on here!! Been so busy with the house past few months!!! It's getting there though.

Cheers, Anthony

I joined now as i saw a new issue was due, and didn't want to miss. Do you take back issues to shows for members to purchase, or could a collection be arranged?

We don't normally take back issues to shows for purchase, they are normally there for people to look at and an enticement to join.

If you look at the DEMU Forum you will see that we have Area Groups and those are the guys who arrange for DEMU's attendance at shows with the Roadshows, they are always looking for volunteers to man, or woman, the stand and show off your latest efforts.

Please do not think that your efforts will be scrutinised and ridiculed because that is not the point, you will be encouraged by fellow members and to be perfectly honest, you won't get much modelling done because you'll be too busy gassing

DEMU is a very friendly society and it's also a good way to get know other D&E modellers in your area, without actually joing a Club as such.

I look forward to maybe meeting up with you DEMU Newbies at the Showcase in Burton-on-Trent on 2nd/3rd June 2012.

Regards

Neal.

Great - well done on joining.

As Neal has mentioned, back issues are not taken to exhibitions specifically to sell but there are usually a few sample display copies. However, as I've already mentioned, back issues, where available, can be ordered through the Merchandise Officer. Have a word with Alan (usually best as a PM through the DEMU forum - which you'll be able to join as a member), who is also the Memebership Secretary, and come to an arrangement about how to get them. Other than that no doubt you'll be able to get them at the DEMU Showcase event in June.

Out of interest for those who recently joined DEMU, the latest quartery newsletter 'UPDate' (issue #65) has just been printed and sent out. Mine arrived at lunchtime today, so if you've not already received it, it should be dropping through your letterbox shortly.

Will look forward to a good read of that later!

Well of course it takes longer

I mean with it being up hill all the way from the printers/distributors and having to clear customs, by the time everyone in the chain has had a good read it'll be weeks before you get it

Enjoy it when it comes, it's another great copy from H and the gang.

Issue #66 of 'UPDate' is now out so those who are members of DEMU should be getting their copy drop through their letterbox this week.

Calnefoxile · June 28, 2012, 11:41:56 PM

Chaps,

How many of the NGF members on here that have joined DEMU, have also signed up to DEMU's Forum http://www.demu.org.uk/forum/index.php

Also, how many of those new members are willing to help at the DEMU roadshow at TINGS this year???

If there a people willing to help, then please look at the Roadshow thread on the DEMU Forum and put your name down, you'll get free entry to the show and a good days crack with like minded N Gauge DEMU'ers.

The only downside is you have to sit there talking to people and trying to do some modelling

Cheers

Neal.

Issue #67 of UPDate is now complete and will be going off to the printers soon (just got to finish off Internal User #6 which will be sent out with it) so DEMU members can expect copies probably at the end of July/beginning of Aug. And yep, there will be some N gauge in it as well as a photo report of ShowCase.
