PeterW Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Anyone going to the Homebuilding and Renovating show at the NEC this week ..? I will probably be there on Thursday if I can get a couple of hours to myself. Coffee anyone..?
lizzie Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) Not going but I am half an hour from NEC if you want a nosey at our build...can do a coffee. All welcome. Edited March 24, 2019 by lizzie
Ferdinand Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 I would like to go, and Thursday would fit. Ferdinand
Sue B Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 We are going up on Friday - should get there for the afternoon. Staying locally overnight so we can go in the next day till early afternoon. All had to be fitted in around daughter who is dog sitting overnight ?
ToughButterCup Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 @lizzie , are you North or South of the NEC?
lizzie Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 South well I think its West really just off A441 outskirts of Redditch. I can do NEC in 20 mins but I know the back roads.
Big Neil Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I was going to be going on Thursday but don't think I can now. IN case it helps anyone, I found an app called JustPark (accessible via website as well). Basically people sell parking spaces on their drives, in their garages etc. Works out way cheaper in most cases that venue parking.
lizzie Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I presume everyone has their free tickets? I'm still getting e-mails offering them

Ferdinand Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 At this point I can do Thu or Fri, but by Saturday I need to have a scaffold tower moved from somewhere else and in place or ready to build for the chap who will be doing my render repairs this W/e. So, maybe ?. Ferdinand 1
Sue B Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 We have our 2 free tickets and we are hoping that 2 more arrive from Insulhub by Friday morning so that we can get in both days. Otherwise I’m going to have to make up an 2 email addresses to be able to download the extra day. We haven’t ever paid to get in yet and don’t want to start now.
Russell griffiths Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 What’s the go daddyo many going im sitting here wondering if to go today or tomorrow or if I’ve seen it all and it’s the same old window salesman telling me that their quadruple glazed xenon filled light reflecting windows will increase my life span by 20 years. 2

Big Neil Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 And now having seen a queue, the lemming in me is making me stand in it.

I’m tempted to pop over to NEC myself.
