    Reserved place on Eventbright and got confirmation and reminder - but t he guide failed to show and was apparently at a family event. Shocking! Do Eventbright not send bookings to the organiser? I'd forked out the train fare to Mcr on the basis of this booking. And by the way, despite the label Free Tours this is NOT free it appears but £10. NOT HAPPY!!
