Hey guys, just a thought and I know we have a year to decided but the golf club pub was excellent, quiet and open to the public. I have to admit, I'm a bit off a football head and had a sneaky half pint and watch of the first 10 minutes of the FA cup final first half at 3. Honestly, was a really nice pub,served food and is a 30 second walk from the main enterence, you know the big gates! I didn't even see it last year but it is there. And I agree, meet a bit later so there isn't as much of that horrible compelling feeling to go spend more money!
Cheers for posting the pics Ralph. That's Wildings large wheel skeleton, certainly a nice looking clock. I'm almost certain there was another of those yesterday but the one that is also there is definitely Colin Thornes Skeleton Timepiece, exact one I'm building ...well trying!

Ooohhh!
Didn't we have a good time!? :D
Only took 1 pic..... Of Stew's overcrank engine, in his car boot. Gorgeous! :thumbup:
Took a video too! Hope he doesn't mind me showing..... :wave:
The little compressor is a bit LOUD!!
Great day! :)

Really good meeting up with you and putting faces to names. I have to admit, in the excitement of it all and the hustle and bustle, I forgot who most of you where! I certainly spoke to Ralph, NickF, NickG, Skiprat, SemiSkilled, Pete, Stew Rob and many others...
It is strange, most of us post on here daily and it is really good to see who you are actually having conversations with!!

EDIT - by the way, I forgot my camera yesterday but did anyone see the Grimsby Engineers stand, one chap, John has built Colin thornes Skeleton time piece, the clock that I`m trying to build one day! If anyone is going today and would take a good few photos of it I`d appreciate it!
Is this the one (picture not from Harrogate!)

Great to see everybody :thumbup: sorry I couldn't hang around and chat longer, had to get back to the wife and boys who were probably bored stupid by that point as I'd been manning our club stand for the first 2 hours! I think meeting up after in the pub would be a great idea for next year though to have a proper chin wag!
