Well last year I set of for the show with some money in my pocket and a list of things to buy. When I got there I met Phil & Martin. Spent me money had a look round the boats. Hum what shell I do now? I know  phone the wife and tell her to put the Sunday dinner on as there was very little there for us petrol heads. 1 hour and it was all done.  ??? dose anyone from OMRA ever get asked to show there wares? Photo's boats, videos.  NA  Oh well to all who go there are enjoy the show good luck but i will give it a miss this year and save the fuel driving there. (Sorry).

If you can't make this show then their Model Engineering show is 50% made up of model boat clubs though there are zero boat traders. Hve to agree with Bill that these two shows are really only half a show each. They should have some kind of 'green' fine for making you travel twice.

I shall of course make space for all mayhemers to meet at the Blackheath stand (tea--no sugar) every day for a catch-up / chin wag. (Midday again ?)
Sadly Larry no huge royalty cheques coming my way, still they got my best side (no joke please----cos I know what you are thinking)
 Now Bill, if you are not using that turbo nutter beastie boat of yours over that time, I'm quite happy to exhibit it on my stand (you get free entry then)
(I'm also exhibiting at the Model Engineer Exhibition with a stand full of scrap metal---well steam engines really)

If you havn't got a name badge, let me know and I'll make one up for you, and you can collect from my stand.

Details of the Exhibition are here: http://www.meridienneexhibitions.co.uk/our-events-detail.php?id=0000000008 but they haven't put on a list of traders yet. Most of the major ones usually go though.

I pointed it out to Avril at Meridienne after reading Barry's posting, and she has now sorted out the omission.

Phil - Don't spend it all  with Mac - we need to eat, too!

My thoughts exactly the reason for not attending ally pally was lack of support due to cost of staying in london and we are a nation wide club i myself do at least 2hours to get to any show so thats half a tank of fuel gone before you take into accommidtion fot the show and food while there etc

Why don't you modellers get together and do swap lodgings between yourselves to save money.  Surely those with common interests could work something out even if it's only a sleeping bag on the floor and a bacon butty for breakfast.  At least it could save a long same-day return trip .........?

Hi Guys
Picked up a wall calendar from Ally Pally this year which shows the International Model Boat Show as being 13,14 and 15 November.
Booked hotel early to save money and guess what, it not on those dates and hotel is not refundable.
Does anybody in this country know what they are doing anymore?

But that's nearly two months' away! I'd check your consumer rights at a CAB or in the Hotel's small print to see if there's any redress available.
