Great show reports Matt/Peter. But I think a few captions are in order....

Buffy and Saddletank take the kids out for the day

Would you let these gentlemen run your railway?

Matt chews over the pros and cons of having a UKTS stand or having the BLOODY BAR SHUT!
Nick 'The Undead' zaps him with a quick curse. http://www.uktrainsim.com/images/leathe ... 2ad2185084

Would you buy a second hand train-sim from these people?

On a serious note - Basingstoke was also the first show where we'd had all flat screens, and I think it made the stand look a lot sleeker and less messy. I think inviting Kyra and Viivi to every show would have the same effect...

I like to read the exhibition reports, because living where I do I have no chance of ever attanding. Or do I? Seems I was there after all. That's me in the second row, isn't it?

See, here's me five minutes ago in Vancouver:

Is that the new telepathic MSTS control interface for MSTS2 that you are testing there?

It's official Jeff Ashton and Dale Stewart are one and the same!

Hee hee, finally, a proper photo of Dale. No wonder he's disappered.

Jeff Ashton is a Monty Python fan and therefore a wonderful person.

Why is Horgy cuddling Connex in photo 2.

Perhaps that's why they've disappeared as well

Hes not, he has a gun held to his back, it was the conclusion of a whole days worth of Nick interefering and being greedy with goes on the layout. Its the same when one us tries to demonstrate msts at a show.

Be warned, do not let Nick near you when playing msts at a ukts show. We have had several reports of constant changing of views, vital on screen information disappearing, randomly sounding horns, sudden changes of signal aspect and da jar vou where others in the group could swear Mid east uk only really exsists between Kings Cross and Finsbury Park, as thats all he allows members of the public to drive!!

For Gawd's sake would someone PLEASE show Ed how to smile into a camera? Every bleedin' photo of the guy looks like something from Police 5...
