Practically Classics Forum

Neil,
I'll be at the show on Sunday, will call at the stand at 1pm. If any one else can make that time I would be delighted to meet you. Have you got any stickers that we could put on our coats with Practical Classics on them with room to write our name ? we could then recognise one another when wandering around the show.

Hi, wear a red rose and carry a copy of PC
I'll be on the stand on Saturday, but will also be on the stage with Ed China PC are doing something all weekend with the 'Wheeler Dealers'.

John Simpson.

Sorry John I cant wear a red rose, I will not be allowed back over Offa's Dyke if I do. Will have a daffodil pinned to my cap!

1pm it is. I'll attempt to be on the stand at 1pm on all three days - however, we do have some live stage commitments which may clash, but hopefully not...

Sorry, I won't be there this time. Small problem of 18 hour flight and about 800GBP in airfares. But one day I might surprise you all.

I came over to your end...come on, there's still time

That's a rubbish excuse Brett! if you leave now'll have plenty of time to find a bar before the doors open!

Well, I turned up at the stand at 1 pm on Saturday and there were three delightful young ladies there but not a PC staffer to be seen as they were all on the live stage trying to put a Spitfire back together. I turned up later and had the pleasure of a chat with Neil though. Did anyone else make it to the stand?

I did get to the stand for 1ish but as there was nobody about I went and had the worst beef sandwich in history then returned without the other half and said hello to Neil. I found Sam munching in one of the food places so said a quick hello in passing.
Neil introduced me to another forum member, Martin (52classic?). I also said hi to Danny but he was running around like a headless chicken so didn't get the change for a chat.
It was a pretty good show I got to meet Mike Brewer but Edd was busy hanging doors when Mike appeared next to me so I didn't get to say hi to him.
TG Live wouldn't let me sneak in though. Miserable security people saying they were overcrowded.

Couldn't make the 1pm meet but did call later on ,in time for the firing up of the TR. Had a quick chat to Neil who proudly showed me a photo of his little one. I did have my daffodil on as promised ! Was the show bigger this year? We seemed to have difficulty seeing every thing, or is it me slowing down?
