Film shows, the largest model railway and a Christmas Market

All these are included in the coach trip to Miniatur Wunderland in
Hamburg, 27 to 29 November.

Our luxury coach is fully equipped with facilities for showing films.
Where else can you guarantee that you will be able to watch the whole of
a film without adverts, phone calls or other interruptions - and share
this with a group of like minded friends?

I am told that the films include "Emperor of the North" and "Silver
Streak", both classic films with a strong rail content.

Miniatur Wunderland is a truly amazing creation. The latest section to
be opened is featured in the December issue of Model Railroader. Our
American comrades will be disappointed that they cannot make this trip.
We have been promised s 'behind the scenes' look at the American section
(subject to certain conditions) which is another benefit.

And to top it all there is the Hamburg Christmas market!

We still have a couple of places left. Pick up locations are Wokingham,
Redhill and Dover. Come and join us.

Full details can be found at nmrabr.org.uk (click on the icon on bottom

Not to mention the Christmas Tarts on the Reeperbahn.

Ex wife was a Theatre major, so I saw a lot of stage musicals. Done right, a
stage musical is much better than film. Done wrong, it's more difficult to
walk out.

Don't swallow those.

They're "pasties", not "pastries".

But Jennifer Beals rides the Monongahela (or is it the Duquesne?) Incline!

Could he just lick them? At least if he promises to stop before he goes
blind, while he just needs glasses?
