Bill it was great to meet you and to chat to some of the team. Well worth the trip to see the excellent work, it is truly impressive seeing it for real. The weather did not dampen the spiry of the evening.

Well done a good evening and apleasure to see first hand the work in progress.
Why was there no mention of your open evening on the main GWSR website? surely this would of attracted more people to the event

Really enjoyed meeting you and some of the others on Friday, and great to see at first hand work the terrific work you're doing. Like anonymous above I was surprised at the lack of publicity on the main website but on the flip side good to see the support given in person by some of the directors of the railway.
The decision was made not to advertise our event on the GWSR Website in order to not compromise events that were aimed at fund raising for the Slip Appeal.
Hopefully next time this will not be an issue!
From afar, my wife and I congratulate the lady in the short sleeves. Now that is loyalty to the cause and we do hope she is not nursing a chill today!.
