================

Think this will be a farewell to Thomas as theres mutterings about him being
bit babyish so GCR is definate, then the bacon/sausage rolls call us to
Shakerstone.
Butterly will have to wait unless point out the ride along garden railway is
running.

cheers,
Simon

Add a fourth side to that coin. Stapleford Minature Railway (near
Melton Mowbray) is open on Sunday and Monday. It's only open 2 week
ends a year, so grab the chance to see it while you can.

=======================

Not a chance, whilst I enjoy bacon/sausage rolls (in a bread roll that is)
these rolls are most delightful - the sausage just melts its so good. Dont
forget the ice cream as well.

Its him wot did mutterings, as far as trains are concerned, other opinions
not noticed.

Theres a 'old paper' whatsit in smiffs at the moment on Emma Peels visit to
Leicestershire - a delightful lady.

Cheers,
Simon
