Mostly Hong Kong

Epping Ongar railway and bus running day
Ron has been on the buses! Visited the above for their Country Bus Running Day. Unfortunately train times did not coincide well with bus time so only managed a return DMU trip from North Weald to Epping Forest, which is … Continue reading
Tonbridge MRC show 2024
Last Saturday was the Tonbridge show. One of the largest one day shows, certainly in the south-east, and always a good one. And it’s popular, as it has one of the longest queues to get in that I’ve seen! Mr … Continue reading
