Bill, We just had the Midlands Model Engineering Exhibition at
Donington last week. Spread over 6 days, Saturday to Thursday it was
packed out on all days. Plenty of Model Enginering club stands, two
working workshops doing engineering displays and lots of trade stands
selling everything from a Bridgeport down to small tools.
Next one will be at Wembley around Christmas followed by one in
January usually at Picketts Lock.
