This will be St Albans, where there are lots of things to do including its Saturday “charter” market, St Albans Cathedral (free), St Albans Museum + Gallery (free), a park + lake, one of the  “claimed” oldest pubs in the country (Ye Olde Fighting Cock 🐓),  the Veralamiun (Roman) Museum + “The Waterend Barn” Wetherspoons up in the High Street where we’ll be having a late breakfast from about 10.45am.

At the moment, the plan is to meet at East Croydon station from 9am to give enough time for those needing to buy return tickets to St Albans City (not Abbey), then aim get the 9.21am Thameslink train (platform ?) which is due to arrive at 10.13am (only 52 minutes !!)

If there are any “late comers”, it’s a half hourly service where you can give me a call to meet somewhere later up  in the high street.

I’ll confirm everything nearer the time, but if you have any queries, please let me know.
