Indeed you were, before I had finished setting it up.  ;)
Youthful enthusiasm without the youth. I did wonder why nobody else signed up for a while after me.


Anyway, back to the quiz; The graveyard is in North Kent.

Only onto the step under the roof, not moved far. The Woodcoombe club in Church Road, Murston.

I recall old railway tracks are still visible in the road along the north wall of the club.

Found it on Google - those two dog statues have moved to a new position  :D

I won't put in my guess as I'm away until Friday and it will hold things up.
