Needless to say there are a whole host of RR members visiting the show too - I have lost track of who and what days they are planning to be there though (that will be the old age creeping in then)

If we'd have thought about this we could have set up some form of game, visit all the stands and win... absolutely nothing

Got my ticket for Friday! maybe I should find some RR identification, though would be better if my username wasn't so weird! Looking forward to seeing as much as possible, and will visit the Jowett stand for sure, going with my mum, and she would be remised if we don't cover the whole place! s1105117 - Try printing this 4" x 3" so it will fit in a standard conference badge type holder.Anyone else with Photoshop or any decent image editor should be able to delete the avatar and substitute their own.

I'm so tempted to go this year but the costs are putting me off Entrance for me and the wife parking petrol food and drink etc it's an expensive day out And that's without me buying tools and stuff I've been before so I know its a good show "but still!!!"🤔

Have done it before and the trains are regular. Bring a rucksack and grab some provisions on route to save the exorbitant NEC lunch prices. Yes you have to carry it about but the money you save will by a tool or two.. that you can then put in your rucksack after the food/drink has gone and carry about . As for tickets, there are a few codes knocking around online re discount on the ticket prices, albeit not much but it's a saving nonetheless.
