Hi There

Don’t forget this Fiday, Saturday and Sunday the 2010 Model Engineer Exhibtion is on.

Vat rises in January so come along and buy all those items you have been saving up for, don’t wait until next year, everything will cost more.

I shall be there for all 3 days so do come and say hello.

I don’t have a shopping list this year, not much left to buy for the workshop but I will still bring a few quid in case I spot something useful.

It took me 16 hours to drive down from Scotland, lots of snow followed by fog and temperatures down to -12 degrees. If I can get there, so can you.

See you there.

regards David

Hi David,

My daughter lives just around the corner from Sandown so I’m going down to stay on Thursday evening just to be sure, so I’ll be there, wouldn’t miss it for the world. Mind you it will be getting warmer on Friday, a balmy 6 degrees C according to the met office. So even less excuse to miss the show, it may even be tee shirt weather in comparison to now .

Regards

Terry

Hi Nicholas

I got the ME PDFs.

Sorry I did not email you.

I left a day earlier than planned to avoid the bad weather.

In fact, I’m just drawing up the ‘to buy’ list right now to make sure I get everything.

Egad! Fate suddenly has me driving down to Kent and back on Saturday… hasty negotiations with the domestic authority, guardian of the exchequer and back seat navigation system have already begun…

I love the fact that the map on the MEX website shows Esher but doesn’t mark the racecourse…

Have you tried zooming in? It shows then. And anyway you can hardly miss it – it’s the biggest thing in Esher!

Hi Steve,W

Where do you live then, My daughter is only about the same distance away in nearby Sunbury.

From the responses here it seems as though we aught to have a ‘Model-Engineer Forum’ rendezvous to put faces to names. Perhaps we should organise something next year.

Regards

Looks like I’m the only one not going on Friday, or any other day for that matter. May be next year.

Morden – just a few miles up the A3 going towards London. It took exactly 15 minutes last year, but I was lucky with the traffic. Realistically it should take more like 20.

Got a problem here, the second page of posts won’t load past the first little bit. Same on the other ME Exhibition stream.

And the reason for the post in the first place.

Have fun at the show guys, my income doesn’t run to London trips and it’s a bit too far from South Devon to go it on the senior’s bus pass.

Post lots of photos.
