CoViAnna Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Or ban backpacks as a security measure in this time of heightened threat and security. Joking (Well only half joking). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
enginelane Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 I think that's a positive and brave move; I wonder what the result would be if there were an extra admission charge for a backpack? I'd say the price of at least a child would be fair. Warley would make millions! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Y Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Ah, but would you have to provide a 'gauge' like budget airlines do to measure the size above which it becomes chargeable? Oh absolutely. I think it could introduce a new level of entertainment whilst trying to get a big queue through a small entrance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

durham light infantry Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Oh absolutely. I think it could introduce a new level of entertainment whilst trying to get a big queue through a small entrance. You could kill 2 birds with one stone. While the queue is staionary sorting out the inconsiderate with their bergens, you could pull some of the great unwashed out for a decontamination shower.

vitalspark Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Back home and Alloa returned to the clubrooms. From all of us a big thank you to the WRMS organising team for a well run and friendly show…thoroughly enjoyed by all. Attached a couple of quick pics taken by myself during station shops in the intensive operating schedule. Superpower for Alloa..a Clan on a diverted Perth parcels working. …and 3 men & a bike!

enginelane Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 Pleased you had a good time, it seems I have survived the exhibition debrief! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
60159 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 May I echo my room-mate Mr Spark's comments. Well done Wakefield and well done to the show's new exhibition manager, Stephen Foster. It was well organised, very friendly and it was clear the whole Wakefield team had put a lot of effort into making it all happen. The wee "social" on Saturday evening was a nice touch and just right. (I too enjoyed the East Coast IPA.) Thanks for inviting Alloa and for a brief encounter with Yorkshire silverware! Recognition much appreciated.

long island jack Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 A little note for next year, if your having the marquee outside again, check on the wind direction and put the entrance on the opposite side, some of those Southern softies didn't like the wind. :stinker:It was all right for us real Northerners, twas like a summers day!!!!!!!!!!

N A Hughes Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 p.s we even found a lot of good drinking holes to put our nights in, and the famous Wakefield pie shop!!! so you found the pie shop then - not bad & much better than a kebab ;-) Did you get to Fernandes on the Saturday night?
