RMweb Gold Enterprisingwestern Posted January 30, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 30, 2013 Updating the comment from Eltel regarding the non attendance of Phoenix Paints owing to illness, not only will Shawplan have the paints on their stand but H & A Models will also. ColinH Exhibition Manager Updating an update. Shawplan/Extreme Etchings are awaiting a delivery of Phoenix paints, the reason for their non appearance being down to illness decimating the staff, which also causes issues with sending out stock, so fingers crossed. Also please note, Brian does not carry the full range of Phoenix, primarily modern image with a selection of popular steam era colours. Mike. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Happy Hippo Posted January 30, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 30, 2013 I'm looking forward to coming, having missed out last year due to the weather and illness. I have already pre-loaded my wallet! Will there be an 'official' meeting up point and time for RM web members as happens at some exhibitions?

dagrizz Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I'm thinking about catching a train to Stafford on Saturday and may find myself with a little spare time between arriving at the station and catching the exhibition bus. Can anyone recommend a good greasy spoon near the station where I can get a Full English at a reasonable price? Cheers Graham Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Y Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Will there be an 'official' meeting up point and time for RM web members as happens at some exhibitions? Not as far as I know Richard. I may only be on a flying visit as I've been spending far too much time not at home at weekends (getting urgent jobs done) and I'm away next weekend too. For Western fans it may be worth carrying out 'stop and search' tactics if anyone spots Dapol Dave. I'll get him back for those roof-panel lifting eyes somehow.

Mike J Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Thanks El Tel for the continuous updates. We're looking forward to being part of your show and all being well should arrive mid afternoon today. Thank goodness the weather has improved, and the wind has died down. It's not fun having to drive a fully loaded van with two layouts packed in, in windy conditions. The Scarborough crew wish you all a successful show. See you later today.

Andy Y Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I hope you have a good run down Mike (and all others travelling today), it's a little rainy here at the moment, temperatures drop a little overnight but tomorrow looks to be bright and clear. No snow forecast (unlike last year's accurate forecast) but there's a possibility of light showers on Sunday morning as it warms up a little again. There's no extreme temperature drops overnight in the cowsheds exhibition halls unlike some years. Some grass areas may be a little boggy so visitors should pay attention to where car park marshals direct folk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no extreme temperature drops overnight in the cowsheds exhibition halls unlike some years. Some grass areas may be a little boggy so visitors should pay attention to where car park marshals direct folk. I can remember going to a Motorhead gig in the main hall one year, there had been a cow show in there a few days before. After an hour or so in the building, it became rather hot, and one of two of the 12000 crowed passed out. The management launched the air con system, well, sprayed the crowed with fire hoses from the balcony, the coolant water, found its way onto the floor and mixed with the cow show debris. I was 16 at the time, and when my farther picked me up from the gig, well, how could I describe the smelly mess over my Jeans. Glenuig, all ready to go, and I have now sorted out my non existent operator problem that I had earlier in the week. In true Gary style, i will arrive in the morning See you all tomorrow Gary Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
