Thanks to Pete and Bob C for their responses.  The conference and get together over the week-end will be a fantastic opportunity to catch up with forum members, some I will have met before and others I look forward to meeting for the first time.

I am planning on attending.  And as time grows closer, I am wondering if there will be other attendees from the US who might in interested in making travel plans to travel as a group.   :)

Hi Lynda,

My wife Julie and I are going to make the QE2 Conference the starting point of our trip to Europe next year. We were in Glasgow a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it so we're looking forward to coming back again. I am looking forward to meeting in person some of those with whom I discuss progress on my model as well as an excellent excuse to talk about QE2 generally!

Best regards,
Lachlan

Wonderful news Lachlan that you and your wife Julie are planning to come along to the conference.  Maybe you could bring some photos of the building progress of your QE2 model to let forum members see at one of the get together sessions.

Hello Lynda
This Sounds Good!
Wondering whether there might be one with a Lucky Number - The 736! :)

Hold a charity auction for that ticket - highest bidder gets the magic number...? ? ?


That also gives a better opportunity to get the event covered in the local media: "QE2 gathering raises £x for y"

Very good idea and very good way for publicity !  But are there any local restrictions on holding a charity auction or raffle for an item ?  :)
