Don't be so certain. I'm very good at hiding stuff using crafty photography ;-)

I'm very much looking forward to the show though and it will be great to meet up.

I've decided not to drive up on Sunday morning as I'd have to leave before 6am to get there in time for the start of the show, especially as I'll be bringing some models with me, so I've booked a hotel for Saturday night. If anybody else is thinking of doing the same the Holiday Inn in Telford has rooms on offer for £45.

Unfortunately due to a change in arrangements beyond my control I won't make Cosford this year. It would mean a long drive after a very late night and I really don't want to risk it. Getting there wouldn't be a problem, it's the risk of driving whilst tired that is.
Sorry folks.

All the best.

Hey folks!
Dazzled I'm gonna show up early to set up so looking forward to seeing your models!
Greggers thats a shame mate, I very nearly didn't make it this year as I've just been through a very messy breakup but I've managed to keep it together to make one last trip out for the month.

Ratch from their website I can see were located in the Cold War Hanger but I haven't been sent anything such as plans or pre-show passes so I am in the same boat(or plane ;)) as you.

Sorry I managed to miss you apart from at the start of the day Mav. I did however manage to call upstairs in the afternoon and had a good old chinwag to Darryl who was manning the stand. I'm glad to see that all went well in the end and you had a decent collection of models on show.
