Yep I realised that but I make the point if you are going to make am announcement of something make sure you provide an address people understand. My instant thought was must be nr London or down south and propmtly ignored it

My apologies but if you had you clicked the Full Event link you get to a nice map showing exactly where Brixworth is on the A508 near Northampton.

I realised that too but if you don't have time to click on the links just scanning through various topics etc.

Its not personal but just making the point for example if I said there is something good on at Snailbeach a lot of people would wonder where is that if I said Nr Shrewbury most would have a good idea where it is and wouldn't waste time scanning websites etc

Thanks for posting crl50 (thanks too for jogging my memory via email 😉 ).

It was indeed a good exhibition, my only criticism was the size of it (there was space for it to have been at least double the size).

Sadly I brought chaos down on a serene library, complete with a room full of people, heads down and eyes closed in a Sunday Prayer Meeting when I walked through an alarmed door and had everybody running like cockroaches for multiple fire escapes :lol: :lol: :lol:

All I want for Christmas is an Eimco...
