i am going to be attending the chatham show and i was just wondering if anyone else from the forum was making the trip?

small tip for those of you who are, even on a bright sunny day, BRING A JUMPER. it can get very cold in the shade by the sea in those sheds with the wind blowing through! i made this mistake last year and finally thawed out around the following tuesday morning!

well i thought it was a good show but perhaps not as good as previous years. phoenix paints was not there and that was a right pain in the neck as i could buy the transfers but not the paint to go under them!

turnout was fairly low but concidering the football that was not supprising.

catering was the same as last year! did anyone notice that the organisers had much better food than the punters?

there was a good range of layouts. of all standards and regions. most i had seen before but a few new ones.

i will be going back next year.

i spent about £50 which is low for an exhibition. but there was nothing that really grabbed me. i got a pair of lima mk3's for a tenner and another for £7.50. they are going to become a prototypa hst at some point! (i already have the powercars waiting for my attention.)

i forgot my camera so i am afraid i cant post any pictures.

you should have said hello!

i only spent £15 on the DC kits stand. just got a TPO. (i have 5 now. but i still have no royal mail red to paint them with and phoenix wasnt there!!)

"retired to the car, turned on the aircon " an excellent choice my freind!
