Might pop along, depends on other things later in the week. Would be good to meet people if I do make it though.

Can I make a suggestion, In Hall 5 The ACE Cafe have a stand, why not meet up there as that should be easy for everyone to remember.

I'm working on the Pre-50's stand just 3 or 4 stands away, if you post a time then we could try and meet up around then?

The guide Map says their stall is 5-644 / 53.13, what ever that means.

is there a better option to park than the nec car park @ £12, it's £9 at the train station but i'm not sure how far away it is from the show though it might be easier to get out

Great in it, they have you by the short and curlies, if you go to the knitting show I bet it's free..

Park in resorts world car park and walk round the back into the main entrance of the NEC, this car park is cheaper, enter the car park off the M42 island go down the hill towards NEC and keep left. To resorts world

I delivered some parts to a place that chemically strips cars undergoing restoration

You wouldn't bother would you

Mick, I was told that if you leave after 18:00 the ticket office is closed, so last night I left after 19:00 and it was closed but the car park boys were monitoring the exit, unfortunately I didn't see the gentlemen who tried to stop me driving out as he blended in with the darkness and I kept driving!!!

I'm using the car again today as I have to admit with no traffic it was quicker for me.

Dave, Come and see us in Hall 5 if you get a chance, but today is forecast to be a busy day for me with 5 different clubs wanting me to be on their stands!

Hopefully see some of you there, leaving shortly.

Used to love going to the show as an annual pilgrimage really.
The last time I went up in my 83 Jaguar XJ 6.

Nice to see you this morning John.
It is a big show for sure, too much for one day really just skirted around all 5 halls.
