Our railway clubrooms share a site with some holiday cottages. The people staying there often drop in to see the club and we have the pleasure of showing them around and trying to explain what we are up to. Mostly, this goes down really well and another small group of people are exposed to the hobby and realise we aren't all a bunch of weirdos.
It's not always easy though. Last week, a very young visitor was watching our N gauge team ballasting and I had to explain that when you grow up, you can pay good money to come along and push tiny stones around.
For fun.
Hmmmmm.
