    It's staying for the steam gala at the start of May too. And it was absolutely brilliant fun today!

    My parents moved the family from Kent to a Somerset village near Glastonbury in 1968 when Dad and my Godfather set up their surveying practice in Wells.

    In those far off days the Fish and Chip shop in Glastonbury used to have a ‘No Hippies’ sign in the window…

    I didn't know @Victor was allowed out of Yorkshire? Has he still got a valid passport? :)

    Can I just say what a truly fantastic weekend that was, big well done to the gala planning team for bringing it all together.

    Victor, the recreations, always something moving, a truly fantastic way to kick off the 50th year of our wonderful railway.

    So nice to see so many happy people around too, both staff and visitors alike. Here's to the next 50!
