Steve you bad lad, I think Andrew meant a BBQ at my caravan? ...  8)

I haven't lost my mind, it's backed up on a memory stick somewhere!

That's what I meant, though I'm sure there would be enough to go around at Jo's - usually is :D I think Nick will be closer though!

I really do hope that somebody can help me  :)

Gerdi,

I am going to Gaydon the first week in June to survey a bridge over the test track (and pick up my advance tickets... 8)).

If you think it would help, I will call in the heritage centre and ask at the reception for you??? Sometimes a person to person talk can be more responsive! If you have any pictures etc that might help send them through to me...(you have my e-mail).

If I can help you with this problem I will m8...

Regards

Joe.

Gerdi,

I called in 2day and they told me that they do not hold lost property longer than 3 months.  Sorry m8.... :(

Joe.

By the way the pictures not me it's my son!

Phew, close call! Nearly wasn't going to Gaydon, the guy who was supposed to be working my Sunday couldn't do it  :o After some frantic 'phoning around, got someone else to cover so all the work isn't for nothing after all! Got my passes and wristband too so all systems go (this is my first ever go at exhibiting plastic models  - done a couple of railway model shows but not 'on my own' like this - anyone got tips as to what to take?)

That's it, just got back home from my weekend at Duxford to find my caravan pass and tickets lying on the mat. Sorry you can't be there Steve, I'll make sure I get loads of pics for you. Any special requests for photos?

Well, Gaydon is approaching no longer in 3 months, but in something like 3 days.
Wonder if my box will have found the way back to Gaydon............
Hope to see you all there.
