Another daft question!
About a couple of years ago, I went on a coach trip to Morton-on-the-Marsh, to a market which I think was on a Monday. Does anyone know whether it is held on a Monday, and is it every Monday? Alan |

But the actual area is part of the Welsh "Marches" from the A.Saxon "mearc" meaning boundary. Nothing wet or squidgy involved, michael adams .... |

The message
from "Alan Holmes" contains these words: Thanks, although I could have sworn it was on a monday, but the senile decay is pretty advanced, so I was probably wrong! It was probably during the war, when Tuesday was bombed. -- Rusty Direct reply to: horrid dot squeak snailything zetnet point co period uk Separator in search of a sig |

It was probably during the war, when Tuesday was bombed. But when somebody upthread felt a song coming on, I heard Flanders and Swann: "The slow train." Stand clear, folks: I think I've got a what my kids call an "Oh, God! Dad's going to cry!" in the offing. And, yes, I _do_ remember Adlestrop..."all the birds of Oxfordshire..." (Edward Thomas, was it?) I treasure a full BR timetable for 1958: poetry in its purest form. With milage in the margin. -- Mike. |

I've just delivered an old (steam period) signalling textbook and a book of African steam locos to a fiend and fellow Zetnut. I wouldn't mind betting he would have such a timetable - or appreciate a copy... -- Rusty Direct reply to: horrid dot squeak snailything zetnet point co period uk Separator in search of a sig |
