If there is enough interest from members I will book again. Need to borrow your Concorde for the display though :B

I will be happy to bring her along. I think we need to find more events like this. There are a few shows at the Warwickshire Exhibition Centre (part of Meridienne) near me that are very much boat/railway/engineering based that might welcome a varied plastic display. I'll make some enquiries.

From the experience this weekend it appears that such shows might be quite happy to have a varied display, as we where asked to if we would be interested in attending another two 2-day events in the north-west. Tom and I discussed it and we are potentially willing provided there are no serious date clashes and they are reasonably local.

I looked up the date for one of these shows and it is the weekend after Telford this year.

:fear: But been fed, watered and all expenses paid isn't too bad for two days in the Colne Valley.

As I was leaving on Sunday, the MC was thanking all exhibitors and traders for the event and saying that they have broken the attendance figures which would have seen in excess of 15000 people attend over the weekend.
