Salute!

[Leon]

any chance of a list of the stuff for those not going to Salute would be interested in,

me I'm interseted in the Medieval army packs, 10mm MDF buildings, WWII vehicles 

I'll see what's left over after Salute and might put a list up here.  If there's much left we'll be bringing it all up to Falkirk as well.

I'll be there. Haven't missed a show since the Kensington high street years!

[Leman]

Sounds like a period of licentious living.

OHH A discounted Rummage box!!!!

I will have to see you nice and early on.

Never turn down a good rummage in someone's "box"

Battleground in Middlesbrough?!  

I thought it was listed as being from Stockton-on-Tees.

Middlesbrough is historically part of North Yorkshire - as its south of the River Tees

Stockton-on-Tees is historically part of County Durham - as its north of the River Tees

So, is Battleground a North Yorkshire show? Or a County Durham show?

And, yes, these things do matter [to a Yorkshireman!]  

[skywalker]

It should be a North Yorkshire show Roy as the venue is technically on the south side of the Tees

If anyone's interested... The Pendraken FB page has updated to say they've arrived and are stuck in a big queue to get in!

Greetings

Thanks to Dave and Leon for spending a few minutes to chat at Salute today. I hope the day was satisfactory for Pendraken.

Leon and I chatted about future developments including BKC, Panzer III with 5cm kurz and tripod MG34s!

Regards

I'm a minimum of 416 miles away according to Google...

No matter how many time I ask - or how nicely - Google refuses to give me the driving distance 

[Steve J]

I use classic AA route planner. I gives the distance, time and directions, all for free

Some initial thoughts on the day:

Seemed much busier than last year (6K advance tickets sales).
Much more space around the dispay/demo games, so easier to see what's going on.
Lighting gave me and my chums a headache and the acoustics as well.
So much to see that it's hard to take it all in.

When mind and body rested will put some thoughts on my Blog.

I think you head for New York, turn right and keep going for three and a half thousand miles. You have to leave your car at New York though!

Dang! It didn't work either! 

Thanks for the intial report  however 
The largest I've been to is HISTORICON - perhaps half the attendance on the biggest day.
Hope the Pendrakeneers did well!

I'm waiting for the tunnel!

I'm waiting for the tunnel! 

Trump will get it blocked, can't have any non-mericans having easy access.

It will be a big, beautiful one-way tunnel!

Was good to have a chat with the Pendraken guys today, seemed to be a good turnout as usual.

What!

There was time to chat?

Was always told that each trader had a 6 deep scrum in front of them.

And, yes, these things do matter [to a Yorkshireman!]  

I think you meant to ask if it was a North Riding show

How anything can be 'historically' part of North Yorkshire is beyond me.
