A trip around the world, by surface transport only, was the subject of the Monday 19th meeting of the Malvern Probus Club.

This highly entertaining presentation by Mr Alan Soper was greatly appreciated by the members present. The journey, illustrated by many photographs, began and ended at Great Malvern station, and had necessitated travel by train.car, bus and boat. This boat travel included a Trans Pacific voyage, as a passenger, aboard a container ship lasting more than three weeks.

The total trip which had lasted more than seven months was summarised in little more than one hour. Quite an achievement.

The next meeting will be on Monday October 3 at the Abbey Hotel Malvern at 10.30am. Details are available from the programme Secretary b533 martin@btinternet.com.
