Less than 9 weeks to Guildex 2010

[7mmMick]

I can't wait, i'll be there saturday. You chaps might be able to help with this as the last time I went was about ten years ago........... I've missed the advance bookings so if I get there for about half nine will that get me near the front of the queue and get me in for ten. i'm only going for one day so i want as much time as pos to look around and spend all the pennies i'm aloud :laugh:

Hi 7mmMick Yes that should be about right time wise. It's always abit hectic before opening times at such a great show.

Rob :wave:

Hi all

Yes, really looking forward to Telford now. I shall mosey on along at about 9.00 both days. My wife will join me on the Sunday. I think she wants to meet you reprobates to see who I spend my time on-line with :scratch:

Phill - don't mention the garden railway - I'm under enough pressure as it is without having to go outside :laugh:

See you all at 1.00 L10 test track :wave:

Richard

 

[Ressaldar]

looking forward to it.

I should be able to leave here at about 8ish to make it for just after nine. my back is still a bit rough so I want to park in the main car park so I can leave my stuff in the car and not have to lug it about all day

I'm going to come along on Sunday and get some birthday ideas... (or even presents!) I'll probably bore lots of people with questions while I'm there.

An aside: since I'm a railfan, and Telford has a railway station, I thought I'd look at the options for coming by train.

If I want to arrive by 11am on Sunday, I have to leave home (not far from Coventry) at... wait for it... 22:15 on Saturday!

Fail, as they say.

Same here I reckon Phill. Methinks an early night is called for! See you all there.

[D1054]

Well a belated report of sorts from me after the "First Day"... can't believe I'm the first one to be posting here although for some luckier than I they are only halfway through the gig, of course...

Nice to meet up with everyone at 1pm;
Phill (Onslaught), Ross, Mike (makhis), Richard (dikitriki), and the lads who's real names I've forgotten (I knew this would happen ) Ressalder, Pugsley, D1054, Purple Haze - any more ??? ; and Graham Powell behind his layout. I reckon the false Fire Alarm was just a ploy to stop us all talking and get back to spending money... :scratch: :lol: :lol: of which I for one spent relatively little, this time .

Thanks to Ross & Phill for sharing the snap they couldn't finish gorging themselves I did manage to eat the dinner SWMBO had cooked for me as well !! :shock:

I won't do a blow-by-blow account until after tomorrow, but it certainly remains my "must go" exhibition of the year....

Hi all, hope everyone had a great day at the show today. Currently stuck in the hotel 5 mins from the Telford centre, so thought I would check in to see what's up.

Couldn't make the 1pm meet as expected, but managed to meet a few... Dikitriki, Dan Randall, Purple Haze and 7mm Mick, sorry if I missed anyone...

Looking forward to tomorrow as I managed to fit the long lost Zimo chip to the J39, so 'should' have 2 noisey engines on the stand tomorrow if all goes as planned!

Annoyingly, I have next to nothing on my want list, though I haven't had a wander round the show yet, anyone seen anything that might take my fancy? Any show specials??!

JB.
