Alan,
I did mention this to my wife but I obviously caught her on a bad day and didn't get a "you can go" look

Went there some years ago when it was at Palm Beach- excellent, and very civilised, with seated viewing , fans blowing and dolly birds bringing drinks.... went to the 'new' site a few years later, and was totally disappointed, it didnt hold a candle to Cosford. They charged extra from the normal entrance fee and car parking fee to park under a tree (it was 100 deg) there was no shade or cool areas and they even charged extra to go near the models for pics.

Do you know Steve Thomas? (ex LMA) Stop by Bob's Hobby Centre and say hi to him. I see him every year when I go to Monster Planes.
(7 day drive for me!)

Yes, i know Steve, i will be visiting him on site, as for the paying bit, with the expense incurred on this hol, a few dollars wont be missed, its all part of the event, and if you could, wouldnt you go? it was just luck that the event was on when we where there, problem is, what do i do with the wife for the day??
