Re: Events 2021

Re: Does the FB Group support the CVRDA Mission?
Yes the pros and cons mentioned above I agree with. Certainly the forum is not what it used to be but FB does support the CVRDA mission but in a different way now. I, personally, don’t ‘get’ Facebook and don’t sign up to friends and other pages, I dislike so much of it that I sign out of it for week...

Re: Quiz ANSWERS
in desperation i flicked through the dinghy database and found the Illusion for Rupert's non existant boat ...a pint sized yacht if ever there was.

Re: Quiz ANSWERS
I take your point, Jim, but on the other hand Brunel was the engineer for the SWR, thus ,presumably, the use of broad gauge originally; and the GWR funded the construction, not sure if that was completely or not, and it seems the two companies were in partnership before they amalgamated. Brunel the ...

In fact for a time they called the terminus Milford. it became a busy deep water port, even the great Eastern put in few times for repairs. the track was originally broad gauge a...

Not Falmouth, Rupert...go north.
The last and largest wooden warship was built near here. it displace twice as much as HMS Victory and was fitted with a steam engine as well as sails. But it never saw service.

Re: Quiz ANSWERS
Yes Pat, I'm sure Sandy knew that . The GWR found a way to shorten the sea route to the Atlantic. This terminus was open in 1856 and closed to passengers in 1964. Rupert . is the nonexistent boat an Optimist?... None around at the moment. Bobsliegh track a Lugger remove a G and R to get Luge . May s...
