551-600

Two and a half-years to cover the next 50 grounds, basically because of the demands of going back to work as a full-time teacher and team leader.  In particular there was a gap of several months between #599 and #600 and I decided to make the landmark with the shortest journey of all to my home village recreation ground.  Most of the hops are clustered around the school holidays with a smaller percentage of long drives!  Sweden and Estonia are added to the list of countries visited and there is a Nottinghamshire "quadruple" thanks to Rob Hornby's organised Hop.  I reach this point with "The 92" and "The 116" up-to-date but three grounds short of "The 160" (Everything down to Step 2).
