Are you definite Mini Spares aren't there this year? Seems surprising! They were at Himley Hall last year and it was heaving around that stall, Bingley will be massive in comparison! Over 100+ trade stalls.

Yep definate... L2B is their first one of the year. Well for the potters Bar lot.

The midlands branch may decide to do a stand.

I sent them an email asking about it, I want a put in an order but don't fancy paying 30 odd notes for postage! So I'll see if I can pick it up at the show, we'll see.

Anyone going from Liverpool area, I'll probably be at my girlfriends so going from Liverpool City Centre (if I'm at home then from Wigan). Most likely down M62 then onto M6 at Warrington. I won't be going very fast as I want to go in the pick-up and I don't really like driving it over 65mph (only gets to 70mph anyway). So yeah, anyone going to be going this way down?

As Roo said the main branch is not, but Midlands are attending

[analogue_radio]

Simon could I place an order through the Midlands branch do you think? I'd ring up but I'm at college!

Person normally.

2009 the year of the rip off mini shows

[Bean]

You're joking!?

I'm going to pick up some wheels because I thought i'd be cheaper to meet up and get them than to get them via courier! That's just taking the mickey!

[Jackman]

Unfortunatly no Bean. It is silly money

Its the 50th anniversary. Time to milk the enthusiasts.

Sorry if i seem a bit sinical but everything seems alot more expensive this year compared to the last few years.

I think it was £10 last year wasn't it?

[Jackman]

Nope, im sure it was only 8 on the door and cheaper if you pre booked.

[minivanman]

Every year I swear I'm never going again because it is in fact a cack show. But every time I end up going because theres something I need ! This time its door cards and carpets from newton commercial. Think I'm just gonna shoot up in the navara, no point driving a mini that far in the salt when I dont need to. And the 4WD will come in handy in the mud

The Oxford services could be a good meeting place for people coming from the south east area?

Yeah would be a good meeting place, i may be coming up on sunday - any idea on a time yet?

I'll be going up on the saturday and staying in a hotel in rugeley just outside stafford, too far for me to go up on the sunday. Hope to see you at the show. We could convoy back to kent wilson1275 if you like?

Sounds like a plan Ben, although i would go up on saturday but have to work and am normally knakered (not sure how im gonna get up sunday morning yet and do the 3 hour drive)

Also I won't be in the mini, will be doing th e journey in our french gtaiii haha. also think oli will be with me. Any idea what time you'd be looking to leave Ben as will be about 4.5 hour drive for you!

Need to get tickets on the gate too, somone offered me a ticket but not sure that is fair on Oli.

I can't remember how long it took last year but 4.5 sounds about right, but we did hit alot of traffic coming back last time. We usually leave about half three four o'clockish.
