Scottish Nationals in Perth, Scotland (not the one down-under that Google Maps keeps directing me to!  :rolleyes: ). April 29th-30th 2017 at the Dewars Centre.

I am planning to be there.

The Wooksta!

I have that weekend off.  I may be there if I can get transport.

This year I can only make the Sunday.
This is because the Saturday is the 29th.
29th April just happens to be SWMBO's birthday (23 again!).
I can not miss that as I have this strange wish to live a little bit longer.  :rolleyes:

You know it's a great B&B when you phone up and the landlady not only recognises your voice, she knows your name AND has reserved the room for you already!
:thumbsup:  ;D

Or you've really got to do something about that short term memory problem.
Maybe lay off the bongs... <_<

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

You've obviously cracked it there Nick  :thumbsup: Maybe you could retire to being a Perth hotelier ? Worse places to settle  ;)
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I've just had the final email from the show manager with the floor plan for this years show.

We are located as usual along side the Project Cancelled sig stand.  :thumbsup:

But unlike previous years we are not in the 1st hall, we are in the 2nd hall (the one with the softer floor) facing the competition area.  :mellow:
I always hope for the best.

That should make life a little easier on the soles of your feet, I always found that cold concrete of Perth seemed to make your feet sore after a couple of days on it.   :thumbsup:

That's the quieter part of the show, tucked out of the way :(

Did we do something wrong or has someone taken a dislike to us?

Nothing of the sort.
They have more clubs and a few extra traders than previous years apparently, so theres more reason to juggle people about a bit.
Look on the bright side. Geoff's comment is very true ref the hard floor in hall one. Plus we will be nearer the little coffee bar they have set up in hall two.
I always hope for the best.

Sorry for the delay but Photo Bucket was taking an age to upload the pictures and I have been busy putting decals to a couple of models.
