I attended the show for the first this year, and God willing I will definitely be attending next year. Great Show.

I've never been to Darlington before, but its ooop North, so I guess I'll be living on a diet of Greggs while I'm there. I'll take extra clothing as well as its a lot closer to the arctic circle.

Nah Steve - only T shirt required (Obviously to be removed if the sun comes out)

Unfortunately I'll be at sea for next years S&L, however Bill Horan kindly stepped in to soften the blow a bit so not too many people would be disappointed.

[DEL]

Sadly Grants had to bail (bale) out.
Apparently he's discovered s mother in law and it's her 80th birthday party.
I've suggested he should bring her and hook her up with Brian

 

[peedee]

Aye good thinking Del
Brian's on the lookout for a young 'un I believe.

I'm thinking of bringing a few bits up with me and they probably won't be all destined for the competition tables. Having seen the comp last year, most of my stuff just isn't up to scratch. I don't suppose any visiting club has a spare table corner they'd be willing to donate/rent to a weary traveller from Norfolk?

Stick them in mate, I do, not in the slightest hope of winning but so guys who can and do win can point out where I need to improve. I've learned an awful lot this way. When you have likes of Brian Snaddon, Del, Gells Carl etc etc there it's madness not to ask them to look stuff over and they will being real gents

Hi Billy,
If you have a couple of figures you need to site that are not going in the comp. then I could see if we could fit a few on our club stand for you. But as Steve said, stick them in.
cheers
