Since 2004, Benedict has been bringing his camera to the club meetings and faithfully recording our models for posterity.  At the September meeting we were treated to a “memory lane” of photos in a montage spanning from February 2004 until December 2005.  It was great to see so many great photos of models,  and for your editor a fair number unseen by me before from times before I joined the club. I also spotted a couple of my own that I’d forgotten about!  Many thanks to Benedict for sharing and he has promised to show the second half of the collection at a date in the future.

Text Box: Obituary– Guy Williams 1925-2007
We have heard that Guy Williams passed away on 30th August. A long time member of IPMS Avon and an excellent modeller and railway enthusiast, Guy suffered a series of strokes in 1999 and was subsequently unable to attend club meetings, but many continued to keep in touch and send newsletters.  Our condolences have been passed to his wife and family
