I will certainly try, work permitting, it looks like a very good day out.
Also from April this year for £10.00 entrance fee you are allowed to visit for a whole year !
Pretty good deal I think.
They also hope to have the Tiger running again at the show if they can get the engine sorted.
Cheers
Tony

i think its around 15 quid adam its a fantastic day and a chace to see and hear the tanks for a change rather than gathering dust in the muesum the ticket price includes entry to the muesem as well on the day i assume this is still the case i,ve been for the past three years and there always lots of model stalls there to pick up some kits
see you there
see you there

I have been going to this show for a good number of years and it is one I always enjoy. This year I will be going with my local club as we have a couple of tables.
Not sure about the venue this year as it is the first time its been used so it will be new to everybody.
