I'm from Four Marks near Alton in Hampshire

I guess that you are familiar with the Watercress Line then - I am a Beaver Scout Leader and I took the children down there a couple of years ago.  A very nice part of the world.  Ropley station with the topery is one of the names that I remember.  The others escape me now.

You could say that!

It runs along the bottom of my garden. About 80 feet from where I am currently sitting!
And the Topiary is nice. Be sure to drop me a PM if you visit again and you can pop in for a cuppa.

As close as that then!! Next time I am in the area I will PM you.  Will be nice to meet up.

Originally from Scotland, I moved south about 30 years ago. I am a Contract Electronic Engineer, working at various places doing various job. Last big job was the safety case tests on the Electrostar trains, class 375 and 357. Thats real power , each train can take about 2MW under acceleration, so 750V at over 2000A, or 25KV at 80A. You have to remember this when walking across the third rail carrying aluminium equipment boxes.

Mark, didn't think you sounded like a Notts lad on the dvd,  I speak daily with Leicestershire folks, and formerly a Notts bunch... I can tell the difference!  Not bad for a thick Stokie!!!

Incidentally, I'm from Stoke-on-Trent, Telecommunications Engineer, for one of the larger companies, I often get the task of stopping and holding up traffic in the highway and billing customers I don't like..Now that's real power!
