Quick apologies to Bournville MRC.......
Been to Bournville many a time as I used to sell to Cadbury.
The thought of chocolate and cream coaches is making my mouth water :P

Yes we are and we even have our own Facebook page :P :smiley-laughing: and he's given the address and opening hours too, if you hadn't been so fixated on the chocolate link you might have spotted that :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing:
NGF may be on Faceache, but a lot of the members aren't ;)
Which means you just get directed to a Log-in page.
And yes, I am a confirmed chocaholic! :smiley-laughing:

There is a lot more to Bournville than chocolate.
1/ me mum was born there.
2/ they have a great model railway club if anyone is interested.
3/ Cadbury also had a fantastic railway system, surprised no one mentioned it before.
