I had totally forgotten that I signed up to join the Runcorn Locks Restoration Society back in May of this year. I had originally planned to get in touch with Graeme Bridge about joining, but the society had a stall at the FBCC Rally in Runcorn so I took the oppurtunity to sign up there and then. It’s around 6 months later now, and I have just received the confirmation of me joining the society, along with my membership card and also my first newsletter which states that there are various things going on, such as Les Brown spreading word of the society as far as Congleton, Bolton and Bury, and that Steve Nicholls from Halton Borough Council will have to meet with the society to give an update on the Mersey Gateway so plans can be prepared for the eventual reopening.
