 Let’s start at the very beginning. There were known parking issues due to on-site works. There was an alternative car park with a mini bus service to the door. We didn’t do this and adopted a gig approach. Perfect parking spot 50 yards from the gate. There were no toe-to-toe punch ups at the door like last week. One desk for cash, one for card. No queue. Sensible. A high end \u00a312. Pretty much as expected, so here’s what I wrote three years ago with a couple of tweaks in parenthesis <\/p>\n

There wasn’t a bad layout in the entire show; the exhibition hits a middle audience, perhaps leaning toward the finescale, and was spread out over five rooms. (This year with a 2mm F\/S dedicated room. They really are very clever.) This meant that the place didn’t feel crowded. There were a lot of people to talk to and  a hook up with the chap that bought Unnycoombe and Dury’s Gap, which are still going strong. The catering was friendly, well-stocked and slickly-served and there was a generally happy buzz around the place.(There were no target layouts, but Terry Tew’s Scottish piece was probably the stand out and the revived O-16.5 really caught my imagination. Good to see NG layouts displayed a sensible table height). The day was very enjoyable. This really is the one to beat.<\/i><\/div>\n
