What a strange thing to request :-?

There used to be a picture on the main home page but I can't find it now. From memory it resembles the type of uninteresting metal building seen on most industrial estates.

It's been ages since I've seen a pic, but as per comment above the building was rather uninspiring.
I seem to remember it looking like a 70's flat roof partly bricked concoction.

The main office deals with Admin - however the club is a much broader and more interesting animal. If they dedicated a whole mag on the office I think I'd use it as a firelighter and post the remains to the editor! :lol:

However I appluad your request - and expect that sometime soon one of our intrepid posters will be along with a scanned photo - most likely in black and white from one of the older club magazines (we went full colour some time in the last decade)

Sounds riveting !!! Perhaps 'LOO'TON would have been more exciting :-)

Joking aside, welcome andyminor - I think you'll find us more interesting than your last club :lol: :o :wink:

Members are always welcome to call at the Derby office. I suggest you give Liz a call first - as we're in the middle of an office re-vamp and the removal people are due in soon to shift stuff (Regalia :oops: ) amongst other boxes! Phone number in Minor Matters :D
