For one I will support the new show. I like SIBS but not so Excel. I am surprised that BMF was asked at all.

I hope that the new show has great success. After all up until now there has only been two boats shows in the UK, both run by the same people. That's a monopoly, or is it a cartel? That cannot be good for us, the shopping, buying public.

We will be exhibiting at Earls Court, not ExCel. I think EC will offer something really different to the cargo wharehouse that is Docklands

Good on yer! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Yet another reason to look forward to Earls Ct. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Earls court always best easy access not like docklands which is still a s!!thole and more difficult to get to than the hebredes

lOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU THERE

 

[Sixpence]

[Sans Bateau]

Seagrave Road Car Park at the back of EC1 or the Front of EC2 (if that makes sense) just of old Brompton Road.

It aint cheap...........but its cheaper than a big fat clamp in a residents bay

 

[Sans Bateau]

There is a tube Stn opposite. Then you can have a beer at lunchtime. No! that's not an offer! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Suddenly Earls Court is sounding a better prospect. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

>Where can I park at Earls Court?<

At your local train station. Then Distract or Pickadolly underground lines to Earl's Caught. Alternatively British Rail - or whatever it's called nowadays - to West Brompton which is on a somewhat bizarre rail route from Brighton to Rugby via Clapham Junction (to the South) and Willesden Junction (to the North). West Brompton is one of the few stations on the UK rail network with its own nature reserve and well worth a visit if you're a fan of bullrushes.

Good lord no! Work, when there are shiny boats and beer all around - that would be madness. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

In that order

If you must bring your car approach from the west otherwise you will enter Ken's congestion charge zone. There is pay and display street parking all over Fulham (10 mins walk) except when there's a Chelsea match when large chunks become residents only (the pavement signs are designed to confuse and catch you for a parking fine). Best of all come by tube and enjoy a beer. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

 

[Pinnacle]

......and it's only a couple of stops on the tube from the office!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Oh eck, don't tell me it is another Apple Mac glitch. I looked at your site, lovely boats by the way, but the price list page was empty. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
