Coventry and Warwickshire Model Show - Sunday June 28th. 10:00am to 4:00pm

Midland Air Museum

Rowley Rd

Coventry. CV3 4FR

We have 3 table spaces and those who are helping out behind the stand need to be there by 9:30am to get free entry. Otherwise it's doors open at 10:00am.
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Magic, I should be able to make that, a lot earlier than previously too as I'm nearer to the place now.  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Unfortunately I'm out and about most of June so won't be able to do it.

As it happens. I wont be there this year.  :banghead:

The show clashes with my holiday........weather permitting, i will be on a beach instead. I was expecting the show to be the week before as per last year so booked accordingly only for the hosts to move the show date afterwards.
I always hope for the best.

Oooer, will we have the multi-layer stand and all the Whiff SIG signs then? Or should I collect them from you sometime before the event maybe?

I might be there, but I will probably have to replace a fireplace that weekend, and we're seeing Rich Hall on the Sunday evening, so timings might be tight...

If that falls through I've got cloths and signage, although it's nowhere near as fancy as the perspex ziggurat.

No worries H.
If Kit and I cant get something arranged. I know Richard B has his own display setup that is available as well.  Plus he is local to the venue.

Rich Hall. Now that's a name I haven't heard in a while.
One of the better comedians, IMHO; I enjoyed him on 'QI', and the bits I've seen on t'Tube and 'Live at the Apollo' were very funny. 

Hope you enjoy the show.  :thumbsup:

Shouldn't be too difficult, we're still back and forth to Finedon quite a bit, and that's very close to your work place.
