Funnel 181, the 2019 Summer Edition will be with you at some point after June 3^rd. Our printers and publishers apologise that they expect a 2/3 delay in mailing your ‘Funnel’ out to you, however, it’ll be well worth waiting for.

Funnel 181 is a well-mixed edition with something for everyone from Zeuner diagrams and a fascinating ‘Boiler Forum’ to the first part of another of John Richardson’s colourful accounts of life at sea, this time facing some seriously unpleasant steam leaks.  There is an account of the new Windermere Jetty Museum of Steam and Stories and a write-up of the 2019 AGM plus a wealth of other material and pictures for you to enjoy.

We like YOU to feature in Funnel! So if you have a nice juicy submission to contribute to 182 – due out on or around September 1^st - please send to the Editor by July 31st. It doesn’t have to be a literary masterpiece: the large and enthusiastic editorial team of thrusting young journalists in the SBA’s offices will beat it into shape.
