The starting point (still a chair, but today with an orange jacket on it) is in the distance by the field boundary. [ATTACH] As you can see we were just 5 people today, plus the digger driver.

Am I the only person who spent about 15 minutes scanning carefully along all the sleepers before spotting the sitting device on the left hand side of the picture? :) Tom

I am so grateful that there are fit and able people, who willingly lay and maintain yhr track for RVR/KESR. Although 40 years ago I used to muck-in with the track gang at Quainton Rd, I was never the fittest. After moving my volunteering to...

I understand the op's sentiment but the way it is said could have been better. There is a lot of choice on gala's through september and october , and attendance plus travel plus sustenance , plus accomodation soon mounts up at a time when...
