[Nottingham] [Visit] 10am to 2:30pm, Sunday 21/042019: TNMoC and Electrojumble!

[NIGEL Black]

Hi Martin,
Thanks.  I should be able to get to the Beeston Star on time if the buses and trams are running ok.  alternatively, is there safe all-day free parking nearby?

My phone number for tomorrow is 075824 16614 in case you need to contact me.  Do you have a phone?

Sounds as if we'll not be back in time for dinner. (Rose needs to know).

See you tomorrow.

Nigel
