I should be there by 11am - that's if my son and heir can get out of bed early enough to get from Warrington to Leeds by 9am - we'll see, they say miracles happen occasionally. 
That's a point actually - what time do the doors open?

We open up about 9.00 for the volunteers/workers. Exhibitors should be able to set up from about ten thirty, railways and dealers somewhat earlier as I can sort out the tables for them on the Saturday. Public, at the Space Centre Car Park gate from 1.00. Exhibitors use the Corporation Road gate.
Cheers

Corporation Road entrance will be admitting helpers annd exhibitors from about 9.00am. Railways and Dealers should be able tostart setting up immediately but hoi polloi will have to wait until we have the big shed cleared, swept and set up. Most of the vehicles are pushed out by hand, the brushing is done by yard brush and all the tables are shifted and erected by hand. There is a lot to be done and the faster it is done the longer we have to play. Of course come evening we have to reverse the whole thing and wait for all the exhhibitors to pack their stuff away first.It can be quite a long day.
But worth it
