Title: Saltash May Fair (03/05/2008)

Quote from: SRUG
The Saltash May Fair takes space tomorrow in Saltash Fore Street. See  www.saltashmayfair.co.uk for more details. There is also an Art Fair at Wesley Church on both Saturday and Sunday.

SRUG will have a stall near the Post Office in Fore Street. Please come and visit, pay your subs and buy some of our postcards. We will also have a May ^SRUG Update^ and our new walk/cycle to the station leaflet available. This entitles you to get 10% discount at Certini the bike shop near Waitrose.

We will have the usual range of rail related leaflets for you to take away.

There is a near normal service planned on the trains this weekend. The only minor alterations are on the last train from Paddington on Saturday and Monday, both running later into Saltash because of planned engineering works. Check your journey at www.nationalrail.co.uk.

There is a normal weekday service on Bank Holiday Monday, but ALL fares are off peak. I have just done a quick check and you can go to Exeter for ^6 return (2 singles at ^3), and if you have a railcard then that would be ^4! Cheap advance singles are only available online or at stations, but at this stage you would probably need to visit Plymouth Station to get the tickets in time.

To the west Penzance is ^9 return, but does not need to be booked, again this would drop by one third to ^6.00 with a railcard.

Richard, are the May ^SRUG Update^ and new walk/cycle to the station leaflet available online?
