do you have to attend both days??

I'll be there for the weekend but if you can only attend one day, that's fine Alan.

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

do you need to be a member of the ipms or do you just go as a guest as I would be prepared to bring along some models
cheers Davie  :thumbsupup:

IPMS membership is not essential Davie!

no probs mate count me in i'll only be there for the one day, sunday if that's ok. How many models are you looking for me to take & is there an entry fee?
cheers Davie  :thumbsupup: :thumbsupup:

Davie if I can get enough interest in filling a table then there won't be an entry fee as you'll be an exhibitor. I hope to be able to get at least two tables, possibly 4 which is 12x4, so I need at least 20 trucks to display. I'm sure Paul Findon will have a couple as will I but I want to bring new modellers into the show so they will take preference. The exhibits on the table will be representing the forum so, the more the merrier. Nige came and sat with us this year and displayed his scratch builds so there's another member who would probably take up space.

I like to offer whatever support  I  can, but I  thought that Gaydon was far enough to travel!  Perth is 236 miles from Leyland which equates to 47 miles per truck :shocked:
Sorry to be so negative on this subject, but with the best will in the world, it`s a hell of a long way.

Jim

I fully understand your problem with distance as this is one of the main reasons that I am kinda stuck to Scottish shows myself, though I would love to get to a wider range of shows, including supporting the many English shows !!!!

It is always great to see the Beyond The Box gang each year at Perth ,,,,,,,,,,,,, and it was a privilage to be allowed to join them at the table for a blether and some hints/tips this year !!!!

It is obvious that they enjoy the experience as they always make a big effort and show that fun side of model building in the mix of subjects on their table !!!!

I hope the folks that can do will do, and that I can get to see loads of the builds from here that make this forum one of my best favourites !!!!

Hi Nick how are you doing, how did you get on with table space I can attend and have some models I can bring, I know this might be too late but it is hard to commit too far in advance, If you could let me know either way.
Thanks Keith

never late with a V8
