[MartinWales]

Wonder if they'll let a lone EM modeller through the door?

Well, Roy Jackson always comes in early on the Saturday morning every year, so you'll be in good company, Martin. Seeing as it's you, I'll even make your ticket valid for both days and Tracy will be admitted free of charge.

Cor Blimey Guv'ner! How can I resist?

Though I fell it's about time I made the effort-any finescale effort I feel has the power to inspire

I am happy to say that there will be a couple of additional traders present at Scalefour North this weekend:

Lanarkshire Models & Supplies
Pete Goss Figures

Also, to complement Bob Gledhill's demonstration of 3D printing, Alan Buttler will be demonstrating 3D scanning of people. If you are interested in having a miniature representation of yourself on your layout then come dressed in an appropriate outfit and pose for the scanner

Unfortunately Greystar Publications will not be able to attend the show. In their place there will be a static exhibit of Standard Gauge Workbench layouts, most likely Royston Vasey by Ian Everett on Saturday and Manston Brewery by Rob Milliken on Sunday.

I usually take a police escort Martin, just in case

Can't make it this year, disappointingly as I'll be heading NW that weekend rather than SE. Hope it goes well James and see you next time.
