Indeed it is Maggi, let's hope they are both well supported as they are geographically far apart ;)

Great to have a choice of event for members, I think.  SRGC event is open to non-members - what about The Norfolk AGS event - it doesn't look to have restrictions ?

No there are no restrictions Maggi, anyone who is not going to the SRGC Late Bulb Day is welcome to apply for tickets.
