I am now going to be there on the Friday, early evening I would say, and staying at the Holiday Inn, so not far to stagger, from tiredness I must add.

I might be there on one day. Possibilities are:

1. Go to SMW on Saturday, then go straight to biker's bonfire bash in Warrington. Downside = long day & need to be on bike, which limits kit-buying potential.

2. Go to SMW on Sunday. Downside = motivation might be hard to find depending on how "tired and emotional" I get at the bonfire bash..... :drink:


However BOTH options might be ruled out by an excess of RWSTD (Real World Stuff To Do), so I won't know until the last minute.


Was going to go today, but now I can't: my elderly mother's had a bed few days and I don't want to leave her today. If she's significantly better tomorrow then I might go, but it's not looking promising......

Coming soon.  Had a terrific time on Saturday, spent most of the day chewing the fat with brothers Narses, Thorvic, Mossie and Melchett.  Saw Lance just as I was leaving, shook hands and said "bye" Thats the way it goes.

Airfix 1/350 Illustrious looks superb, RRP is only £50.

Most enjoyable day I've had at Telford in years, thanks mainly to the folks on here :)

I got back home about an hour ago. Loads of money spent, plenty of plastic added to the stash. And plenty of good company all round.

Im sure those who took photos will be posting them over the next few days.
