Just a reminder about the Heavy Equipment Model Show which is approximately one month off.
If you wish to visit, you will be treated to great displays of the sort of things which brought you to this forum - ie Plant, Cranes and Heavy Haulage models.
There will also be some full-size vehicles on display. The venue is bigger and better than last time.
Please note - if you wish to exhibit - tables are filling fast - please return your form and payment to David Weston straight away.

It will be a much needed kick in the posterior. How far is the show from a quarry up that neck of the woods that have old working machines.

Excellent! It would be nice to meet you. We will have badges to faces can be put to names. I suppose our DHS names should be made obvious too. Tim

The Mercure Dunkenhalgh Hotel is the venue itself but there's a wedding on the day before. 4 star so will be pricy. There will be B&B's nearby, I'm sure. Any probs, pm me and we'll find somewhere.
