As luck would have it I dont work Friday to Sunday so the question is , is there a better day to visit the show. Is the Tipec stand there all three days and is the Friday say not so crowded / less going on etc ( and more expensive I see) which day would you recommend from past experience. If it makes any difference I will be bringing the dear lady and two small children which is always a shlap at the NEC but I dont leave them behind :P

Cheers Mas

If you are bringing the family, you might want to fetch lunch as the food prices at the NEC are shocking.

Please come along and visit us at the stand and take the weight off.

We are NEC veterans as our hobby for many years has been showing Mastiff dogs , thus my online name has always been Mas.
Many folk meet me and say " oh I thought you'd be Greek or Japenese "
( Massimo apparently) :mrgreen:

We too would recommend anyone brings a lunch , its not just the prices either, you can queue for ages then be over charged for some of the worst food imaginable outside of a motorway service station :roll:

Hope to see some of you there anyway.

Mas
