It may have to be an 'either - or' between here and Warley for me; somewhere along the way I have to do Christmas shopping, get a weekend in Nottingham with my daughter and grandchildren (some of them) and possibly fit in a flight to Canada to see Katie.

It would be nice if I could find time to upgrade or replace this box of chips, too...

We'll have to see how it goes - but it's a great experience and I don't want to miss them all.....

I'll certainly try and be there - give me an excuse to try out part of the "real" Great Eastern ;) Not done the route since a visit to Norwich Crown Point depot two years ago!

Might make the journey if im not busy working on SWL or KRS. Quite busy atm but i may see if i can get there.

If not it will be Warley, never been to one of the biggest shows in the UK so no doubt i will go.

Hopefully by getting to go to Colchester i can get some more time to play with the activities on South Western Lines and Great Eastern, now that matt has a copy of both :)

A chance to brush up on my driving skills :P
Regards

Well make sure you introduce yourself to one of the team so we can all say Hi :) Sometimes people come to see us, look for a while, and then go away without being brave enough to chat to us, so we miss them :(

SO dont be shy (and that goes for anyone coming for the first time), stick a hand across the laptop and say Yo Babies (or something similar) Im xxxx. :) And if you can do it just as Doug is approaching a red and thus cause him to SPAD then much fun will be had by all :) :)

Mind you - if im asleep at the controls just wake me up at the next station stop. :(

Don't worry, I usually end up behind a pc at the shows whenever I turn up :lol:

Besides, need to see what people think of GE for myself ;) :D

I might be there, hopefully. Last year I saw UKTS Live at Romford MRC, but they're not visiting there this year.
