Default Who's going to Beltring?

Who's going to Beltring W&P?

Sadly I'll be there only Friday/Saturday morning But without my carrier.

I have an old carrier steering wheel and worm gear I don't need anymore. I'll take it with me if anybody is interested.

Talking W&p

What do you think about all getting together?

Saturday morning.

Anybody got any ideas for a meeting piont?

If you can't bring your carrier bring pictures or something interesting to do with carriers.

(Richard if it's your first W&P beware you won't get round in a day.)

It's good to put a face to a name!!

Richard, I'm sure a google search will give you the nearest station. Type in The Whitbread Hop Farm, Paddock Wood. Ron
