I stuck at it at the #postcard fair yesterday and went for quality over quantity. I found some nice local cards even though I had to travel to Surrey to get them! Here are a few of my favourites

Just a reminder for all you #postcard enthusiasts or those who might be tempted! that it’s the big Woking fair this week. It has a great range of dealers and everything starting from 20p bargains Fast and frequent trains from Waterloo, I’ll be there on Friday.

It’s that time of week again… On #MappingDisasterMondays embrace those disastrous feelings by stepping into some local #history and get a taste of some disasters from the #past . (It might make you feel better)

'It is sad to think that this accident was caused because he was distracted by the spectacle of an Ambulance Train; a train designed to save lives.'- Sandra Gittins, discussing the Ivybridge railway accident of 1917 in our latest blog post: railwayaccidents.port.ac.uk/railway-accide…
