Can't you make a weekend out of it? Come to the show on the Saturday and do something with the wife on Sunday? You would enjoy it and would sure be good to meet you 
Lovely engines John! Realy love the Wyley Harris! The base/burner is interesting

The last time I was in the West Country, we were on holiday (camping). Having left Falmouth two hours previously with my wife driving (first stint), she asked how for we had to go. We hadn't arrived at Exeter, we had another two hours to Bristol, another two to Birmingham and another three to Leeds - we swapped places soon after and she went to sleep!
Nice holiday though.

A fine pair you have there John & i look forward to seeing them in the 'flesh'
at Exeter.
I was at the Matford Centre last Saturday at an antiques fair, no steam though 
It's a shame you can't make it Stephen, as i'm sure there'd be a warm
West Country welcome for you
