Hi everyone,

The South West Region's Question Time is being hosted at the SS Great Britain on Saturday 22 September 2018 from 12 noon to 2pm – followed by light refreshments and a complimentary tour of SS Great Britain and Museum.

This Question Time event is a great opportunity for Club members to engage with the Executive Committee and staff from the Club with any questions or suggestions about the Club.

The nearest Club site is Baltic Wharf.

There is ample parking at the museum, please contact a steward upon arrival for complimentary parking ticket.

The SS Great Britain was a passenger ship designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel and is now a museum ship. She was the first iron steamer to cross the Atlantic, which she did in 1845 in 14 days. Now part of the National Historic Fleet, she is berthed at Bristol Harbour and attracts around 200,000 visitors each year!

If you would like to attend this Question Time and enjoy the tour, please register your interest with Lesley Fear, Regional Secretary at secretary@southwestregioncc.org.uk

Whoops, Baltic Wharf seems to be fully booked. Best look elsewhere if you’re intending to go.

So it's a 250+ mile round trip for you and me Tinny. Funny how Club head office thinks Bristol is the South West.

More than that I reckon from here Euro and, for anyone from Penzance, it’s got to be more like 400.

No matter where it is held it is always going to be 'miles' from someone. Can anyone suggest a venue where all are within 'striking' distance?

This is the South West we're talking about and Bristol, to my mind, lies at the northernmost edge of the Region.

It amazes me that, in their supposed wisdom, the club has decided that the SW includes the Isle of Wight, parts of Hampshire, Wiltshire and so on. It’s practically the southern half of the country. Yet, when you want to book sites in Somerset or Dorset for instance, they’re classed as Southern England, not the South West.

Consistency is not a word known to CAMC.

PS. Look at the logo. That was screenshot from this website shortly before posting. Did I mention consistency? 😆
