Sorry Gareth, thought I'd replied,. My pass arrived Thursday I think and is pinned on our notice board.
I asked Mark if he wanted to put one of his BSAs on the stand but he can't make the time for it as he has a gig on Saturday. He's hopping to get to see us on Sunday if he can.
Thanks for sorting it all out for us. Really looking forward to seeing you.
Cheers
Richard

I've just posted out the show passes, you should receive them by Friday.
Not received mine as yet but the post is not too brilliant at the moment here. Still waiting for something I ordered two weeks ago on ebay it is tracked and was out for delivery on Monday, still not got it, reported it to the seller.
Will let you know when I have the pass.
Regards
Mike

NOTE:- Received the pass this morning Cheers.

I've been thinking about the Saturday night in Stafford and what peoples thoughts are for eating and drinking? I have provisionally booked a table at the Plough & Knot pub near the showground, alternatively we could take a trip into Stafford town centre and try out some of the local hostelries? Anyway just something to think about and we can discuss at the show.

We will be ok, the Greyhound only serves a maximum of 8 pints (well that's how I read it) so if we have a pint in each and finish at the Greyhound, that's only 15 pints!!

Seriously though, Thanks Gareth for all your research.  Whilst the town pubs look more interesting, I'm happy to go with The Plough and Knot. Not much atmosphere but we can make our own. Happy to go with what everyone else wants.

Hi there all, not long back from another brilliant weekend at Stafford.
Lovely to meet friends old and new. Especially nice to see Trevor again.
Thanks once again to Gareth and Graham for organising our tickets etc, and supplying everything we ate and drank.
Roll on the next one
