Just to confirm: I'm not going.  :-\

Just got back to work after long illness, health still touch-and-go and finances have taken a hit. I'm also in the middle of managing thr sale of my late auntie's house, and I'm not comfortable being unavailable for a whole weekend.

Have a good one folks! :thumbsup:

I'll definitely be there, my local 'accomodation' (my #2 daughter's house  ;D ) has been arranged for months now.

I expect I'll have a car full of models to display, some of which may even have been built this year!

Sorry to hear your not going Geoff, but health comes first. Luckily, touching all the wood going, I'm nice and settled with my blood pressure meds.

I'll be in the Premier Inn. Booked it at the end of last years show and will book next years at the end of this years. You have to in order to get in  :-X

Quote from: Thorvic on October 30, 2022, 12:56:39 AMIPMS are saying the floor plans will be released next weekend, so less than a week before the show.

Sadley no cat sitters avaiable and a recent change in meds makes it a little risky to do the day tripping, much as i would like to, so have a great show.
As the meds are for blood pressure, it;s been a wise move to abort and not have the stress of trying to finish builds and collating kits together for the displays this autumn.

Cheers
Geoff

Take care Geoff.  :thumbsup:

Shame Thorvic and Weaver can't make it, but as everyone says, health comes first.  One of the builds I wanted to get done is done (yay!), one more to try and get done.

So have agreat time evryone, and spend lots of money! :rolleyes:

They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

I presume as a Senior Scout you will have a compass on your person ?  :angel:

We won't need one. JB's in Scotland, which is North of Telford, and North is toward the main entrance of the show. Simples.  ;D

You know, I actually checked that. And if we are in the same spot as last year in Hall 2 and raise our glasses towards the IPMS gate area, we are pretty much looking in the direction of Prestwick.  :thumbsup:

We could even do a live Zoom call at a suitable time and share it with Jim and all those who can't be there - but before we open the second bottle  :drink:

You would have to turn a hair to the right for me then considering the distance. Next year I plan to be there.

Your mobiles obviously far more capable than mine. Mind you you're probably more capable than me as well  :angel:
