The Rise and Fall of the R101​

 

Club members who managed to get to The Rising Sun for our last monthly meeting of 2024 were treated to a Club sponsored buffet and a very interesting talk about the R101 airship. Traffic all around the venue was gridlocked due to a serious accident on the A1(M) in the morning.

Our Chairman was subjected to a 2 1/2-hour drive which covered 5 miles.  Fortunately, Nick Cooke our speaker arrived in good time to set up and be ready to start his fascinating talk. The buffet laid on by the pub looked inviting and was appreciated prior to the start of Nick's talk and during the break.

The Committee is eagerly planning for next year's outings and shows.

For those attending the '2nd Saturday of the Month' gathering at Lolleywood Cafe on the 14th December please be aware that they should not park their cars on the grass areas around the Cafe but should use the hardstanding areas. This situation will probably endure during the Winter months.
