I'm working that weekend or i'd have thought about popping over.  It's only a 10 hour drive...

I've already had a week's leave approved. I will be there, hopefully with something new finished to show. ;D :thumbsup:

Excellent!  Sorry you cannot attend, Fred, though.  Guy, I'll PM you closer to the event and arrange to meet?

Maybe next year.  I get every second Monday off so if the dates fit I could drive over Friday afternoon and back Monday morning.

We won't ask how she did that, but the female of the species can be quite ingenious at times  ;)

BTW. I love the way your countdown is half days  ;D
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

It was still all Imperial when I was growing up, so that's the way my brain works  ;D Interestingly our Government stopped trying to "force" metrication on us quite soon after we'd allegedly changed. They realised it was easier to just go with both systems and Imperial would eventually die out. Mind you it could of been that someone in the Ministry of Transport worked out how much it would cost to change all the road signs  :rolleyes:

There was a period in Ireland when the distances were in miles and the speed limits in kph.

I got stopped by a Garda in the south of the country one morning, and he said 'I don't know the actual speed you were doing sor, I don't understand these metric things just yet, but I'm sure you were going too fast. So just slow down a bit alright?'  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
