I'll check, but I don't think spending money is compulsory... :scratch:Rob Pulham said:
I didn't spend any beyond the entry fee last year !!Or maybe I'm just tight-fisted anyway.....
If a lack of will power is the problem then leave the wallet at home, or take SWMBO with you; the effect is pretty much the same !! :lol: :lol:

I know what you are saying but it is a fair trek from Wakefield, Halifax on the other hand seems just up the road.

I have just made up for not getting to Guildex.
I had rather a good weekend selling some of my 4mm kits on ebay (the wife persuaded me to take the plunge) and as a result I had the funds to bid on and win a Hayward suberban LMS coach and two Sidelines period III LMS coaches, all for less then ?100 each. Even show special offers wouldn't beat that.

A first Guildex is a treat to be savoured. The huge range of products now available is astonishing.
I shall be going both days, and shall mosey along to the test track to put faces to names. As always, I have a big shopping list of nothings (ie tools, bits and pieces, no nice boxes) that will cost me far more than I expect. I shall spend a lot of time talking, and hope to take my better half on the Sunday. Paradoxically that is more of a stress on the wallet than the Saturday, as she keeps seeing things I might like to buy. Still haven't worked out why I have a Rocket to build.

I got a card from the Warley MRC this week, inviting me to buy advance tickets for the NEC Show...
For one day; Adult ?9.50, Child ?6.50. NEC Parking ?8.00
TOTAL = ?24.00... :shock:
and not even got through the entrance yet...
Another year I won't be at Warley, then...
It also puts the Non-Members price of ?12 for me & son, plus parking (about ?3 or ?4 ?) for Telford Guildex in perspective,too, I think.

Hi
I haven't been (and won't go) to Warley for years. Too many people rather than cost, but I must admit it's pretty expensive. I loved the Warley show when it was at the Harry Mitchell recreation centre, and did go to the NEC a couple of times after it moved, but never again, not even with Heyside should it be invited.
Don't forget Jordan, you get 2 full days for ?12 at Telford
My list is mostly hand tools and consumables, plus scenic bits for Heyside, though I'm not ruling out another box should I see a bargain. There is one kit I'm chasing for Heyside - Chowbent Stanier 2-6-2T - but I don't hold out too much hope for finding one of these.
