RMweb Gold Alister_G Posted January 10, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 10, 2020 As a newbie to the Noble Realm, could you give me some details of the venue, timings, social events and likely places of accomodation? I have looked through the thread, and last year's, but couldn't find specifics. Thanks, Al Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted January 10, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 10, 2020 (edited) Hi Al, The venue is the Staplegrove Village Hall, Staplegrove, Taunton. The date is Sunday April 26th. Accommodation: lots to choose from, I've got a room in one of the Premier Inns. On the Saturday early evening, we are invited to the Taunton Model Group's clubrooms on Bishop's Lydeard station, followed by a meal in the local pub. Prior to that there is nothing formally arranged, but a trip on the WSR is a common option. Full details will be published soon--ish. Edit: see here for last year: l Edited January 10, 2020 by Stubby47 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the birthplace of so many noble steeds that graced the railways of the South West, it cannot be anything but within the Noble Realm, but beware, it may be within our borders, but it is close to the border with the uncharted and wild lands to the East and the North. Dagworth, in Cheltenham, is our border Watchman in those parts. It is a lonely vigil, but a worthy endeavour. Perhaps we need a Watchman in Wiltshire as well? 2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Simon Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Hi, Rather sadly, I'll be missing the SWAG do this year, I'm helping @Graham_Muz with Canute Road Quay at the Epsom Show instead. I haven't missed one for a number of years and it has always been a real highlight of the year! Roll on next year! (or is that a bit early?)
