RMweb Premium DIW Posted May 12, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 12, 2015 Interesting new venue. Parking looks limited at the moment from the Google view - so will you be announcing in due course what the arrangements will be? (Hopefully the Google view is hopelessly out of date.......) Looking forward already to seeing the next show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ColinK Posted May 12, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 12, 2015 Good luck. Shame the venue isn't a bit further North, say Preston, manchester or Leeds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allegheny1600 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I shall investigate whether it is still possible to fly down from Manchester or Liverpool, fly & taxi would be far preferable to driving or even, training down I'm sure. I did once get my mate to drive me down from Derby, some thirty years ago waaay before sat-nav's and the like and before I could drive. When we got in the car, he said "Where we going?" and I explained how we needed to get on the M1 to start with. When he said "how do we get to the M1" - I did worry whether we would ever make it to Southampton!!! (we did and it was great!). Cheers, John E.

RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted January 21, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 21, 2016 Website works fine for me, it just suggests the regular bus service from Southampton City centre, about 25-30min trip. http://www.firstgroup.com/southampton/plan-journey/timetables/?print=pdf&source_id=2&service=1&routeid=14207331&operator=30&day=2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium petethemole Posted January 21, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 21, 2016 I thought I'd posted but the PC ate it.

Allegheny1600 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hi Folks, I really hope you have a great show! Sadly I won't be able to make it down, I'm just not fit enough for such a trek. Maybe next year? Cheers and good luck, John. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rue_d_etropal Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I was a late invite for the exhibition, but I am on the list under 'Ile de Singe'. Intend to be bringing a lot more, with the OO sibbling , Monkey Island and hopefully lots of 3D printed items to show people. Working on some new ideas, far too many to incorporate in my mini layouts, yet. Just hoping weather is OK, as its a long way to travel down, but looking forward to it. I was exhibiting at Eastlegh in 2013. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
