Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I handed the paper work over at the cosford show, and had an email conformation a week later

Right as some people are thinking I'll be acting as a courier at this show I had better be clear on my intentions.

It's very doubtfull I can do it I'm afraid lads. I'm currently under the quack with a respiratory problem * and whilst it's getting better it does mean that I'm not supposed to charge around a lot and long journeys are supposed to be a no-no as I get very tired, very quickly. The current weather doesn't help either  :banghead:

Now put that together with the fact that it would take me 5 hours to get there on Sunday - train/tube/train/bus/walk/bus  :banghead: and 5 back it's not on. The first train out of Paddington would not get me there until 11:40 and that's if the connections work.

Can't go down Saturday as I have a 70th birthday diner to go to.

So apologies to Kit/Hank in particular.

* The Docs now know what it is and I'm finally on the correct medication. Should take 2/3 weeks to clear up

OK Chris, Hank and I will work something out I'm sure.

I'm surprised you can get to Thornbury by public transport on a  Sunday at all actually!  :o

Good news about the state of health anyway.  :thumbsup:

It's train to Bristol Parkway, then a bus, then a walk, then a bus, then a walk. To get to Paddington for the train its walk, train, tube and I haven't checked if the train on that leg is running - just checked and they are, but it would be very tight getting the first train out of CP and making the first train out of Paddington. Doable but fun

If anyone wants/needs a lift from the Devon Somerset badlands (Wellington/Taunton) area, i'm going to have three empty seats.
only issue is i'll be there until midday only, but i will aim to be there from before doors open.
