Hi Ian :hello:

Yes.. 2009 it was though where the time has gone, I've absolutely no idea :dunno: Scheduled 'official' opening for the bus/transport museum (it IS bus.. god knows why they're calling it transport!) is in August. I'll try and find the exact date for you ;)

If the weather ever comes back nice again I think I'll pop down. I did enjoy my visit last year.

Any idea how long it took to move the Concorde?

Sri Jimm.. no I don't. I'd normally have been there to see it happen but probs with the parents up in the Midlands precluded seeing it happen 'live'. I reckon you're looking at in excess of an hour though.. perhaps 2 ;)
