You'll be able to make a weekend of it, as well...…. :eek::eek: :thumbs:

Saturday 13th is the date of the Gauge 1 bunfight (aka the Spring Show) at Iveshead School, Block A, Forest Street, Shepshed LE12 9DB, 10am to 5pm, (It's about nine miles away from the above location).

All the best (??) in Gauge 1, with added interest in that the Gauge 3 Society has been invited as well, along with a bit of 16mm thrown into the mix.

Come and have a look at the 'big stuff'.

Don’t I know it Baz, when we started planning the exhibition last year, it never occurred to me that it would clash
It’s worse ‘cos I only live about a mile from the High school in Shepshed, and meet up with a few each year with pub & chinese afterward, going to do some rushing about on the Saturday

Torn between two lovers...….. :headbang:Oh, 'eck…….. :)):)) it'll end in tears :'(

Two model exhibitions, same dates, nine miles apart - now that takes some doing, someone ought to be really proud of themselves, tempted to say 'bet they couldn't do that again' but...… I'll not tempt fate.

If you happen by the G1/G3 jolly, stop by & say hello - I think I've got a stand there (well, I've paid for one!). :thumbs:

I shall sneak off and pay you a visit.
I’ve got “stuff” to put on the bring & buy - so there could be money involved
