Don't forget, just over a week and a half to the first meeting, please get there,there is a lot to sort out, with some urgent matters for discussion!

James Guest has sent some more photos of tram badges, I am knocked out by the quality of them.

Mr. John Goddard of Brighton very kindly sent in these superb pictures of some tramway memorabilia he owns.They were from his grandfather originally, and include a built by badge from a tram! Thank you very much for sharing them with us.
Went to the Engineerium Saturday, and spoke to the owner, Mr. Holland. He was very interested, and politely listened to my description of the plans for 53. I did mention about displaying 53 there, and he said he would consider. It is one possible option.

In preparation for the first meeting in March, I am pleased to announce that we have a secretary, a publicity officer, and a signatory for the society cheques.If any of you are still hesitating, we still need a treasurer and others....Remember March the 28th at the Hope in Brighton, time 7.30pm.If you have a chance, do go to the James Gray photo collection of the Brighton Regency Society.This is an on-line photo resource of old Brighton and covers all areas.If you go to the Lewes road section, there are shots of the tram depot being constructed,as well as the trams themselves, just type James Gray collection in google!.

OK, it is time for a meeting! Venue, the Hope Bar, Queens Road, Brighton, just up from the clock tower and close to buses, with a ten minute walk from the main station.
