William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

You could park in Maidenhead if not? You'd pay to park at the station car park (s) but places nearby for free if you need them

I was hoping for an F150. Even though they're only available as left-hand drive automatics...  |

A final reminder.
Plan is to catch the 1135 from Maidenhead to Bourne End arriving there at 1147. From there a walk to Marlow along The Thames and then lunch in The Marlow Donkey pub.
Anyone not wishing to walk or unable to make the 1135 can of course head straight to The Marlow Donkey, where the walkers should arrive around 1330.
At Maidenhead/Bourne End, look for the guy with the grey flat cap - that'll be me!
So... who's confirmed?

Me: I'll be the one distancing himself as far as possible from 'the guy with the grey flat cap' ...  The BBC» weather forecast, by the way, looks good: sunny intervals, 24 oC, wind westerly 9mph.  |

3 minutes is tight, but official for the 1135 to Bourne End.
Fingers crossed for no network problems tomorrow morning. Else we may be looking for a bus to Bourne End or waiting an hour......
I've also called The Marlow Donkey pub and reserved a table for 6-8 peeps so that we can all sit together.
