There were 24 hardy souls who braved the bad weather to enjoy the tram ride from Seaton to Colyton on Monday 9th September. Most members met up beforehand in the cafeteria of the Jurassic Centre and had a light lunch knowing that a very filling cream tea was awaiting them at the other end of the tramline. The ride itself in a tram reserved for the bank pensioners took us through Seaton Wetlands where many birds and other wildlife could be seen and the rain did not detract from everyone’s enjoyment especially with the lively commentary from the tram driver. Barbara and Peter Johnson’s initiative in suggesting this function and their organisation of it were rewarded with a thoroughly engaging few hours. The cream tea at Colyton Tram Station was worth the trip in itself while Mick Mabbutt’s replica Golden Spread Eagle made sure the occasion was a Barclays exclusive!
