Is this a meet up for anyone or is it just between a select few. I would like to meet up to say hello to be able to put faces to names.
I will be there on the Sunday. My wife will be with me will that be a problem!!

Kind regards
Paul

 

[pedromorgan]

hello there

no problem at all. evryone is welcome.
I suspect there will be about 10 of us. that has been the case for the last couple of years. its nice to have a group picture to put faces to names.

Mrs mardon37s would be very welcome.

I will try and bring one of the models from my bench with me.

[pedromorgan]

Peter

 

[millsie]

i knew it was one of them because my self and sean nearly forgot about it lol

if you are going by train do take a moment to check the disruption. the WCML is (how can i put this?) screwed.
chiltern are running to moor street but you might have to get a bus from there to the NEC.

i am getting visions of queues of truly biblical proportions! 18,000 people visiting the show. lets say half go by car. 9,000 people all trying to get on a bus that runs evry half an hour!

check this out.

I am going by car on the sunday and i am hopeing my father will drop me somewhere on the chiltern line to get back to London.

Peter

 

[millsie]

im planning to go there on the train, as its only just up the road from me, but i will double check anyway

 

[pedromorgan]

i am not sure the local trains will be running from new street.

Peter

 

[millsie]

im getting it from melton to coleshill station and then by bus to birmingham internation(NEC) should take about 1hr 30 mins and the bus travel is only 20 mins

 

[wiggy25]

My dad and I will be there again so will see you at about 2.00pm as per last year.

If you are all going to meet by the loco, how will you be able to tell 'who is who' and isn't that the same meeting point of RMweb and other groups?

Just asking

[madon37s]

Good point 72c. Perhaps we could all make a small badge with our usernames on or just MRF.
What does anyone else think?
Kind regards
