Not been for a few years, so went today. WTF - not a single car or bike model to be seen (except for the Wallace and Gromit van)

Indeed. To be honest, I was a little disappointed. Not doubting the quality of the workmanship on show, just felt like it was a trade fair that happened to have some models on show rather than a model exhibition with some trade stands.

Yep, I was at least hoping to discover some really oddball engineering stands (anyone know were I can buy 10-20mm slitting saws) but having bought a lathe amd milling machine recently all the main businesses there I've already discovered by default on the web!
