2008 programme

IMPORTANT NOTE: To ensure there is sufficient room on our buses, all trips must be pre-booked by emailing trips@tclbs.org, or writing to the address on the contact page. Please state your name, and which excursion you are intending to come to. We shall send you back a confirmation email or letter so you know your booking has been safely received. If writing to us, don’t forget to include a return address as well !

If you need to cancel your booking, please let the Society know in advance of the day so we don’t wait for you.

We will always endeavour to accommodate all members wishing to travel. If demand is high, we will run more than one vehicle, unless numbers are strictly limited by the nature of the excursion.

Departures will generally be from Central London, and subject to a minimum number of participants. Payment will be taken on the day.
