Tony
Thanks for the link. It has indeed benefited us both as over the recent 'Thomas' week I was able to accommodate a family from Poland and a family from Jersey who might not otherwise have been able to attend !
Hope there will be lots more 'Thomas' weeks to come!!
Kind regards

... snip (about a steam excursion) ...
We stayed overnight at Alton after the trip so it was a pity MHR wasn't running as it was a glorious Sunday morning. Thanks to the staff at  Swan Hotel  in Alton who made us drinks and toast when we arrived back at 00:30 following the delayed run-back.
Best regards
Nigel, Michael & Philip
