We're taking stands at the two motorsports shows coming up.
Next weekend at Excel and mid Jan at the NEC, both full of petrol heads who're always looking for new ways to go fast...............

Nope not many people about actually. Great for those that go but perhaps not so great for the future of the boat show. although I spose most would be going at the weekends.

MikeK & myself went on Saturday, not too many people there then, which was nice!
Maybe "peeps" remember the Boat Show is always in January, so they don't expect or look for a November/December show.
I (we) only found out via this site.
This one I recon is better than Excel. Long may it run.
Did anybody notice the fault with the P21?
