Quick question or 2 first will you be taking card or cash only (I don’t mind what the answer is I will just have to take out cash if it is cash) secondly would it be ok if I film at the show I have done nice videos of both of the Nottingham shows this year 

[88C]

Hello Richard, thanks for getting in touch. We are cash only for entry and the Summit Centre who do the refreshments are also cash only. You might like to look at the discussion taking place under the topic of how do you pay at exhibitions, I have made some contributions there.

 

We have no objections to you filming as long as layout owners are OK with it.

 

If you are able to attend that will be great, I will most likely be on the club sales stand so please say hello, if I remember I might have my RMWeb badge on.

Only a few days to go now. 

The club layout this time is Sutton-in Ashfield town, the actual station was about half a mile from our club room, now it is part of the Asda site.

 

Just a reminder that entry, refreshments and club sale will be cash only.

I am interested in collating information from recent shows about attendance, compared with pre-Covid years.   The aim would be to help inform other clubs about what to expect or plan for when reaching decisions.   Can you quantify anything from the K in A  Show please e.g. the percentage change in attendance compared with the last equivalent show?  Thanks in anticipation.
