I'm planning to travel down on the Friday evening (the benefit of "gardening leave" for the next few weeks) so can distribute passes in the morning. I'll bring merchandise and the DVDs that I've done.

Excellent! Angus, apologies - I just re-read your first post on this thread as I had mistakenly formed the opinion that you wouldn't be there. Where do you plan to stop on the Friday? I'm considering driving up Friday evening rather than an early start Saturday.

Well, if I was right all the time I'd get to be predictable!

Too many red Excels? Is this related to all the Silk Red models in the motoring press recently :wink: ?

I have Alan's screen - but no access to a projector at the moment.

I've booked (and paid for) table + 3 chairs and power is free if we have our extension lead(s).

I'm going to stay on Friday night - but haven't booked anything yet.

I can't promise anything, but will ask at work to see if I can borrow a projector.

I will also make enquiries re projector; as with Chris I can't promise anything.
Do we know where we are going to meet on Saturday, and when?

I think that, so far, Alan and Tanz have offered their cars, which would leave one space.
Angus, please correct me if this is incorrect!

Cars on stand : Alan, Tanz, Strongy

Service vehicles : me, Chrisw


I'm staying here : http://www.laterooms.com/en/hotel-reser ... mpsey.aspx

Possibly a meeting point too ? I'll let someone else suggest better locations and timings though - I have the necessary passes and joining instructions in my club file.

We also need to find some time this weekend to thrash out exactly what's going on at the NEC next month.

Not being totally familiar with the area meeting at your hotel sounds fine. Do we know how early we have to be in at the show ground?
