On Tour
Due to "popular" demand I have included this list format of The Tours.

When complete this will facilitate the calculation of numerous trivial and misleading statistics, just to whet the rampant appetite I have provided a few starters for ten - correct @ 12/08/21 - my attendance in brackets.

Years on Tour 35 (28)
Tours 32 (25)
Tours (under-strength) 2 (0)
Prologues 14 (13)
Total Tours 48 (38)
Melton Mowbray Pies 00 (00)

I am always working to some degree on the text, maps and photo galleries for the tours I have attended, what is available is linked to the list below.
