Title: Friday 21st March 2025 - still happy to chat about buses in Taunton Post by: grahame on March 19, 2025, 17:01:26 Headline is "TravelWatch SouthWest" Cancelled - at far shorter notice than is comfortable. As a director of TWSW, I apologise - the cancellation is due to multiple things that could not have been foretold or even guessed at a week ago, and as I always say to people "your health comes first" and that expands beyond personal contacts to speakers, organisers, and attendees.
A very difficult decision for our secretariat and chair to make - not one I envy them. I am aware that some people have travel plans to Taunton, and that there is a great deal going on (or not) especially with buses in the counties around. As I had Friday set aside anyway, I'm planning to travel down for the day - a "jolly" perhaps - arriving 11:15 if the train is on time and leaving back around 6 p.m. I had already set up a post-meeting meeting for around 15:30 at The Plough and will still make that - happy to meet other friends too. Will write more overnight - off to the WWRUG AGM now!

Quote I have revised my plans for tomorrow, so I will now be able to attend a hopefully convivial meeting in The Plough, Taunton (https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g190730-d1905455-Reviews-The_Plough_Inn-Taunton_Somerset_England.html), from 15:30. If only for the opportunity to meet Finn, our Coffee Shop forum mascot, again. ;) CfN. ;D If anyone requires assistance with access, I am happy to help. CfN. :) Title: Re: Friday 21st March 2025 - still happy to chat about buses in Taunton Post by: ChrisB on March 23, 2025, 15:09:56 Thanks CfN, appreciated. But if I recall that pub, it has a stepped entrance/interior - and no accessible toilet!

I wish an alternative you had been around c: 1860 to point a camera at Taunton and surroundings' navigations, boats and associated people.
