This date has been in our calendar since August 2013 ... at which point we would have planned for a longer day with guest speaker, lunch, and so on.   Then the Baroness Kramer visit was scheduled for the same day;  the AGM goes ahead, but leading into the Right Honourable Minister's visit to the area, on which she'll be taking elements of both the Heart of Wessex and TransWilts lines.

Concratulations Graham just shows what can be done.

Hopefully it will be inspiration for a successful CRP for the Thmes Valley branches although we already have a resonable service there is much improvement that can be made especialy with the staions and their facilities. Maidenhead (for Bourne End & Marlow) for instance has been voted  one of the worst stations. See post (please add link)
