Is that the same place as it was last time, built into a football stadium as I recall?

This is at Stadium MK again, home to the MKDons football club. Just off the A5 as I recall.
Stadium Way W, Bletchley, Milton Keynes MK1 1ST

A word to the wise. Dont plan on bringing shed loads for the tables.
Due to the extra space they have to have around the place for people to move in these days of covid, table allocations have been reduced.
We were down for 4 tables but were cut back to 1. I have twisted a few arms to us get back upto 2 tables at least.

This hasnt been helped by the death of their show manager from cancer. As a result they lost a fair chunk of their information inclucing all club/sig bookings

It might actually be easier for me to get the train to Bletchley ?

Could well be there. I'll bring one or two of the more recent efforts. The club itself isn't coming down, but the club secretary and me down as punters.

I have arranged the day off work for this one. First time I've been to the MK show in several years, and my first time at this venue.

For the first time in ages, there's nothing to stop me attending so I'll be there.

NARSES2 · March 24, 2022, 07:28:16 AM

Great Nigel, look forward to catching up again

PR19_Kit · May 01, 2022, 11:52:55 AM

Sadly I can't make MK this year as I'm going to a funeral the same day, something that's becoming all too common these days.

Sorry about that.

That's a shame, Kit, please accept my condolences.

Martin - given your earlier post regarding table space, how many models per SIG attendee do you suggest?

The Wooksta! · May 01, 2022, 03:54:01 PM

I was bringing about three or four. If Dave brings the DH117 and Martin brings his SR187, I'll try to get the FD3 finished plus a pair of P8s?

And I'll bring down those bits I've promising Dave for months!

Sorry you won't be there, Kit, but hopefully I'll see you in Scotland.

kitbasher · May 02, 2022, 12:23:41 AM

Morning Mr B - yup, the 117 will be going.
