IPMS Avon have crossed all their fingers and toes in hope that they will be able to hold their annual show in 2021.
http://www.ipmsavon.org.uk/shows.php

Sunday August 8th 2021
Probably at Thornbury Leisure Centre, BS35 3BJ

I don't know if this one we would attend normally or if we have enough members in the area should we want to. I've put it up here just for info.

It is one of our usual shows. And is normaly well attended.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

I can almost SEE it from my house, except there's a ruddy great river in the way so it's a 15 mile drive to get there!

the things you learn, give your mind the wings to fly, and the chains to hold yourself steady
take off and nuke the site form orbit, nope, time for the real thing, CAM and gridfire, call special circumstances.

Living in Herefordshire, I might be able to manage this ............assuming I'm not doing anything at Hereford Cathedral that day.  If I do manage, I hope to meet some of you there.

A short update.
So far I have had zero responce from IPMS Avon. So I have resorted to slightly underhand meathods.

A friendly IPMS branch located not a million miles from my home have kindly forwarded the booking form for the show. That has been filled in and returned to IPMS Avon. WE will have to wait and see if they accept the booking or not.

I have asked for our useual space allocation and 4 passes.

I have heard that my London club has a table booked at Avon. I may try to get down for this show.

As the RW is full of problems for me at the mo' I am going to see if my usual lift to/from the show is available.

Hope to see the usual suspects soon!

My car's already packed, the Volvo wagon as it's the same shape as my model boxes.  ;D

My Club's going to be at Avon as well, so there's a LOT of boxes!
