I thought that a link to the website for the Stratford Upon Avon park and ride (https://www.warwickshire.gov.uk/stratfordparkandride) might be useful to those wanting to come to the show and partake of the Society's Sales Stand among other delights...

Getting rid of a few spare spaces, Julien?
Well, we have to use our EU surplus before October 31st...
It's "interesting" when read out loud in that format! :)
Just to update the list of layouts.
Allerdale Farm has had to pull out due to terminal car trouble, but in its place Christopher Payne is bringing his 09 layout 'Pyn Valley Railway'.
Andi Nethercoat has just asked me to pass on the following details now that he and I have had a chance to sort out all the figures.
We had 190 paying customers through the door and managed to raise £1000 for Brain Tumor Support
And a big thank you from the visitors to "The Big Cheese" and you (was it you in the kitchen in the very fetching pink pinny?!) for organising it all. I for one enjoyed it greatly, and look forward to the next time.
I can't take that much credit Tony, as all I did was help out in the kitchen.
Andi was the main force behind the show.
Yeh... The exhausted looking one!! ;)
Did you get to keep the pinny, Julien? (For use at home!) ;D
The pinny will be going back into the box of catering stuff with the other 3 - once I've ironed them...
