Who's planning to go, then?  I assume OGL is in the throes of getting a SIG pitch organised - he's usually very good at that!

If I am targetted by JMNs, I'm in good Company.

No, no, no! You do not die for your country, you make the other one die!

I'm going. Here's hoping we get the same place as the last couple of years... £ weeks to go and at least 2 kits to get ready....

Love the typo...assuming it is a typo!

Yep, in the same boat but with 3 to finish. Fingers crossed.

Assuming the Tube is up and running I will be there for a couple of hours. I have to be away by about 12:30 to get back for a Ruby Wedding bash. I'll bring a couple of kits and Martin can take them home with him until I can pick them up ?

Newcastle is the same. Hope to be there for a couple of hours and then off for Christening duties in Sunderland

The Usual suspects, plus a few 2nd hand dealers that only seem to come out of hiding for this show.

Ok now the house keeping part.
1. Set up is from 8am to 10am when the museum opens to joe public.
2. I will only find out our location on the day, when I arrive and book in. Heres hoping its in front of the Wessex again :thumbsup:. (prime location)
3.The car park will be charging as normal, but there is free parking at the Barnett collage site about 8-10 minutes walk away from the museum, other wise you pay at the ticket machines. That applies to every one.
4. The museum is open until 6pm, but the show break down starts at 5pm. I suspect that some clubs will start to break down around 4ish, we will go with the flow if it looks like the majority are breaking down before 5.
5. Due to the limited table space, and depending on how many of us turn up on the day. I may have to use the two models per member guideline.



I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

As Martin says it's the usual suspects plus some traders you only see at this show. Normally a good selection if a little crowded assuming they put all the traders in the same area again. Don't forget Hannants London shop is virtually next door and will be open.

Takes me about 1 1/2 to 2 hours to get there as well.
