We're quite proud of our minor role with the post box part of the project, Steenbergen & our connections to 'Jim' Warwick!

Whilst the weather forecast is again quite mixed, we’re not expecting to be impacted by #StormAmy so our diverse #NAMusInside offer could be an attractive option!

It seems to be a damp start across #LoveNotts today so we expect our #NAMusInside offer to be popular today!

At the weekend a Truckfest event is taking place on the Newark Showground so we suggest that you ought to allow a little more travel time when visiting the museum.
There’s also some extra advice in here:

During Saturday’s successful #Aeroboot #Aerojumble sale another #Gyrocopter transfer was agreed to an aviation collection in Norfolk & we noticed that this airframe that’s being retained has a new display location in #NAMHangar2

Our Blue Steel is starting to receive some much needed #NAMspruceUp attention & will be shorty going into the #NAMworkshop for its de-corrosion & repaint – work already underway!
