Anyone going on the 13th Aug this year from here?

AFAIK the UK SIG has a stand there anyway.

I'll be there for sure as my 'local' club, CPAC, is going too.

I'm hoping to go , if the usual gang will put up with me again .

Martin H · July 11, 2017, 02:11:27 AM

Yeap. We have a stand there. With plenty of space.

I will be there as usual.

Sadly, no. Too far and no transport.

Having missed the show for a couple of years I hope to be there.

darthspud2 · July 11, 2017, 05:05:47 AM

great, guess I won't be billy no mates.

Thought I'd ask as there's no mention of it anywhere I could see and not being a team player (ipms member) I don't see club updates.

It's possible that I MIGHT be able to manage this date. Exactly where is it, please?

Alternatively, from the north, where I suspect you may be coming from, M5 Jct 14, turn west for the A38 and follow the Thornbury signs.

M4 Jct 16 is west Swindon...........

Thanks Kit!

I mat fly in via dragon.....

Won't be making it unfortunately. If held on a Saturday it might be feasible but Sunday's are just to awkward and expensive. 2 nights hotel basically.

Have fun

Only downside of that is that dragon stabling in the Bristol/Gloucester area is difficult to find now that the dragon hatcheries at Berkeley and Hinkley Point have closed. Might I suggest that coming in by magic carpet would be easier. It's cheaper to roll up and carry off a length of Axminster (or even silken Isfahan) than park a dragon..........but the chance of having available a fire-breathing creature to whom we might feed JMNs has some attractions.
