I know it's early days, but it might be time to start thinking about next year's Perth exhibition and gathering up information.
Iain Morrison will be there with his KaninchenBau automated DCC layout. He will be exhibiting alone and has asked me to mention he is looking for members to help out to give him breaks. The layout is fully automated so the role is to keep an eye on things and chat with the public. He says he doesn't know how many exhibitor tickets he is getting, but hopes to be able to offer them to helpers.
I have not received a formal invitation for the 009 Society/ScOONs so I'll follow that up. Did anyone on the stand get a verbal invitation? (I drew the short straw and got only the invoice!)
It would be a good idea to used this thread to keep a record of developments for the exhibition.
Graeme, didn't get a verbal invitation for next years Perth show but I think we are in the diary for attending anyway. Have forwarded the e-mail trail from earlier this year. I am certainly intending to be there from the Friday set up to the end on Sunday again and will be driving down so can take the display items with me. Sara is also intending taking her layout next year so going by this years exhibition, cover wise, if we have at least one more person we could cover the stand, Sara's layout and Iain's layout.
I've added the dates to my diary, so will try to be free. Very close to my daughters birthday, so might be difficult to commit. (She's should a little interest in a couple of wagons rolling past, and did enjoy my dad's garden railway, but I think I'm a long way from convincing her a trip to a railway exhibition is a birthday treat!
