Well, I'm pretty much all set for a very early start tomorrow for travelling to the exhibition and celebration.
I know of a few ScOONs who are also going (through our Zoom meetings and WhatsApp group). Some of us will be there for one day (generally the Saturday members only day) and some, like myself and Roger (who I understand is on car park duty on Sunday) for both.
If you are also going, please say hello and have a chat. Some of us are planning to wear our ScOONs badges so you may spot us. If you are unable to attend, but would like to hear what it was like and see some photos, I'm sure there will be plenty in the Zoom meetings that follow.
I have been asked, as have other Area Group contacts, to bring our ScOONs banner. I don't know where it will be placed (possibly in the entrance or in gaps between layouts) and we don't have a stand, but if you are unfamiliar with our logo on our badges then it is also at the top of the banner.
Here's looking forward to a very enjoyable weekend and very many thanks to the organizers and helpers!

If it was an conference/exhibition in the USA, I'd lay it on with a trowel and go in full gear (and I have done). :)
If you are willing to stump up the cash we could commission and register a ScOONs tartan perhaps?

I wear Black Stuart (or, as I have been known to call it McCarrug)

And I assume Stuart is happy about that?
Maybe not, if he's in a black mood about it...
