John - Ive put your thoughts to the committee, so Im just waiting for some responses. I hope, in spite of your reservations, you can make it again this year.

Well, it looks like we've made some progress regarding the figure and bust categories and initial thought are that we will have two classes, up to and including 75mm figures and 76mm and above and busts up to 200mm and 201mm and above...

I will post definitive info here as soon as it's all been ratified!

Well folks, two weeks to go till our show. Everything is in place, floor plan sorted, traders confirmed, clubs confirmed, re enactors confirmed, burger van booked, inside catering sorted! All we need now is people through the door to make this one the biggest and hopefully the best, yet!

Doors will open for setup from 7.00 AM and could I respectfully ask any traders to remove their vehicles from the unloading bay to the main carpark, once unloaded, so that others can access the main hall, thanks. Public entry will be from 10.00 AM.

Competition rules and categories are on our website above and let's hope we have another bumper set of entries again, this year. Trophies will be awarded for 1st and 2nd in each category and a certificate will be awarded for 3rd place.

All show information will be available both on the website and the FB page - I look forward to seeing you there!

Me again! Here is the floor plan for anyone who may be attending the show - think of us on Saturday afternoon setting up the tables!

Just a reminder for those attending our show that British Summer Time starts at 2.00AM Sunday, so dont forget to change your clocks!!

Competition classes, chaps...http://www.stokemodelclub.co.uk/competition.html

OK, then - Doors open at 7.00 AM Sunday morning for set up, we will be there to direct and assist. The loading bay will only be open until 9.00AM after which it will be locked for the rest of the day - can all traders please ensure that vehicles are removed once unloaded, as there will be no access at all after 9.00AM - this is a school issue and not anything that the club are able to change, sorry. At breakdown time, vehicles can be bought back up to the front entrance of the school, for loading up, but there will be no access to the loading bay.

There will be the usual burger van outside the venue for food and drink and there will also be refreshments available inside the show. We will be running a tombola, but no raffle, this year.

We look forward to greeting all friends, old and new and wish everyone travelling to the show, a safe journey.

See you Sunday!

Hi Guys - Just a big thank you to all who attended the show today - It was really busy and Im afraid I didnt get chance to speak to everyone I wanted to! It was our biggest effort yet and was well attended, for pretty much all of the day. The competition attracted a huge number of entries - so much so, that we ran out of entry forms! I will post pics as soon as I get them.

Thanks again from me and all of the rest of SOTMC for making it a brilliant day!
