I'm booked in at the Travelodge, price nudged up here too as an impending dentist appointment stopped me booking straight away. It pays to get in quickly.

Yes, I went for the one I mentioned above and the rate had gone up by £3 to £42. Gulp, I see the Travelodge is £26 ... Oh well, next time.

Did you book the Premier Inn? Travelodge Birmingham Central Newhall Street is quite a bit cheaper, I've stayed there before and it was fine.

Congratulations, Martin!
I'll book the hotel for the Tuesday night and will visit the show earlier that day. Notwithstanding times of arrival, it would be good to have a possible place for a meal on the Tuesday evening. |

I would like to join in however my second granchild is due at the end of February, so I think that date could prove difficult for me. Martin |

I think that sounds like a good name for a set '7km north west of Dunsop Bridge' if i get some time to myself for a day I may try and have a ride out to there on the bike with the camera. |

I'm not so interested in the show, but am happy to spend time in Brum - I can book for the night of the 19th if we settle on the 20th for the DM in the city.

I won't be going to the show but I'll be interested to hear people's impressions. I could travel from Aber to Birmingham on the Tuesday evening, though I may get there too late for a pint

Phil expressed an interest. I'd be interested in booking a hotel soon; a Premier Inn standard room can be had for £39 (Birmingham City Centre (Exchange Square) - new hotel) for the night of 19/3. If we do the Show on Tuesday 19th then I'm happy to do the Wednesday in the city centre. It depends if Alan is planning to go to the show (not on the Tuesday). |

The only day I can confidently say I can visit the show is Tuesday 19 March.
Brian Edit. As it happens I’m going to the NEC tomorrow, Sunday 26th, for the model railway show as I am developing an interest in photographing some of the amazing layouts and dioramas the modellers make. I suppose I should post the fruits of my labours in the macro thread as there isn’t one for miniature trains and cars. Edited by bonneville - 25 November 2023 at 20:44 |

So interested parties are Howard, Brian, Bob and me... any others?
Can we settle on a day for the photo meet? I can then book my Aberystwyth event, which has limited capacity. |

The NEC has a fast train link to New street (about 10 minutes).
I'm also up for anything local, just need to fit it in with trips. |
