Hello Guys
That is brilliant! so its near Lemington spa.? How would someone who does not drive get there and are their B&B close by.I took a look at the links you kindly gave me and could see some useful advice,but first hand advice is worth a lot.

Since they removed all the nearest ferry links to UK, I will maybe have to fly but will have to get clerance to do this?and I suspect the show will be in November 2015 is this correct?

I don\t suppose their are any comparable shows earlier in the year!? and an all boat show is perfect for me.

many thanks Steve

Hi Steve
Fly to Birmingham int airport. Take the monrail to the Train staion. Train to Lemington spa . Then Taxi to the show or see if a modler could give you a lift. In Lemington spa there are hotels just goole it

If you have any additional suggestions for either store visit or alternat show that wouod be super

Regards steve

We are planning to visit the show this November 2015, and some of my useres (I'm running a Danish equivalent to this site) has asked if I could arrange a group visit so maybe there will be a group of Danes there this year who knows.

Hello Guys,

I have being giving my where to visit Conundrum

a little bit of extra thought.
Please can I ask fellow members if their is anything during the month of JULY 2015?
as this would be the best month for me to visit the UK.

If their are no good Boat Shows available during July maybe a Visit to a Stroe Open day or similar? just a thought
Really appreciate very much the help

best wishes Steve

Good Day Martin
Great to hear from you.
So this is the one I should visit if any?
how big is it? is their trade support,A beer tent (scrub the last!)

reagrds Steve

ian-mccaffrey · « **Reply #187 on:** January 20, 2015, 11:08:20 am »

As far as I'm aware there are only a few traders. Personally I think more should be invited
And there are clubs from all over the uk attending
No beer tent as such. It's more of a case of bring your own along with your tent / caravan and sit around a camp fire and BBQ with like minded modellers and drink till you pass out and in my case crawl out of my tent Sunday afternoon ha ha
