Nearly the end of the day and Rainhill NG is getting closer, now is not the time to panic.

Tomorrow is a good day to fill up your car ready for Saturday or oil your bike, maybe oil yourself, dig out the bicycle clips !

If you arrive early, you will bag the best parking spots.

The bacon baps may still be going, enjoy a nice cup of tea and then spend a few hours enjoying the exhibits.

Enjoy a lunch in the cafe area and examine those purchases or read the book you bought.

If you fancy it, enjoy a free ride on a Vintage Bus, you will find the timetable at the entrance to the hall.

Its a great opportunity to spend sometime with like minded modellers.

You know it makes sense, will see you on Saturday, come and say hello !!
