Well it looks like I will make it to Duxford on Sunday for the MAFVA event, but Teacher brought up a valid point.
I would like to meet up with some of the faces here that are attending in the flesh [no biblical intention meant] as it is nice to put the person to the writing. So how are we going to identify each other at such a show?
Any ideas? You know like in the spy films; I will get funny looks walking up to a complete stranger and saying 'Pssst are you with the big A'?
Any thoughts most welcome as long as it doesnt involve wearing a pink suit etc.
Regards,
John

Hi John
Why not do something subtle and classy? All wear large foam-plastic sombreros with flashing neon Armorama logos.
Just a thought...

Nice to see so many sensible ideas :-) :-)
I guess stickers or name babges are the only way of finding out who everyone is. If you want to look out for me-just look out for an 18 year old with bags full of models!!!! Perhaps we could post a picture of oursleves on here???

Should that not be ' on the elipsis'.....
I hope there's only one refresments stall outside the marqee, lest we recreate a 'Benny Hill' style runaround between the stalls....
I'll be there, if I get there before 11.
Cheers
