Evening All,
Just thought i'd spark up a little thread to see who is planning on heading to the Midlands Model Engineering Exhibition in the middle of October.
For those that don't know I will be having a stand there with Mike Jack who is also on here with the his BR Class 3mt Tank engine build thread (thing of beauty), please do come see us, we are "True Scale Modelling" and are on stand S6.

You beat me by no more than a few minutes, just bought a pair of tickets online tonight. Haven't yet decided which day my good lady and I am going but probably Thursday. If you see an old fool with a bemused expression on his face walking around and a small lady trailing close behind apologising to all and sundry then you have probably found me. I'm suprised she still lets me out... I will be wearing home-made purple and green badge (forum colours) to warn off anyone who wants to avoid me. Sorry, Adam, did I just hear you say you were taking Thursday off? Should I come Friday??? Steve (on his best behaviour, honest).

Well you can't miss us so please do introduce yourself!

Will be on the Cheltenham ME stand on the Saturday for my sins.
A cheaper way to get in if you don't count also taking a load of stuff up there on the Wednesday.
Just note that I don't look much like my avatar (<-left).

Just note that I don't look much like my avatar (<-left). Nor do I, although I occasionally get called "Petal". The usual thing I hear, though, is "where's the silly old fool got to now?" Steve

I'll remember to listen out for that!
Not sure I'd call my entrance fee cheaper than normal but still looking forward to my first exhibition and showing people what can be done.

I'll be there, not sure what day yet, Malcolm needs to lighten my cheque book....again!!! You've clearly got too many pages in the thing. Maybe drill some lightening holes in it.

Buying more cheating bits to assemble 'cos I'm not skilled enough and too lazy to do any proper model engineering

Hello Adam, In the near future are you planning to produce 5" Britannia boiler top feeds.

Geoff, We can have a chat about it at the show if you are coming as I am hoping to have something to show for these which are Mikes castings that have been machined but I probably won't have them till some point Friday.

Hello Adam, sorry to say but the exhibition is a bit too far and awkward to get to, also the move from Harrogate to Doncaster, that's a bit too awkward for a few of us up here. However there's no rush as I've a lot to make yet , but when you have them and show them on this site will be soon enough, many thanks.
Geoff (Carlisle).

Geoff,
Not to worry, as soon as I have photos of them I will post them in my thread so you can see how they look and I will get some prices from Mike for you.
