Any body care to admit they will be going ? .....always attend along with the SBS every year ,nice boaty fix amid the winter gloom.

Seem to remember some folks adamant that Excel was finished due to return of some stuffy flea pit called ..... Earls Court.

I go along to pick up a free Evening Standard umbrella from the man handing them out by the entrance. It costs me nothing to get there using my London Travelcard. Sometimes you can get bits of ciabatta and leftover beer from the tables outside the bar by the entrance.

Me too, and Boot hopefully.

Yes, I may well head to Boot again this year. Had a right laugh with Jez last year. Work is manic though, and may not allow for it

Thanks cheapskate, was not going to go
But top tips like that, great might just venture down there.

Good question PS.
Who's going?
Who knows?
The Organisers don't seem to know who is exhibiting

Have attended in the past, thought is was OK.

Now if I can find some more cheapskate tips!

Kwacka: Don't forget that people of, erm, advanced years get free bus travel. So long as you leave home soon, you should be in London by early January.

Hope this helps.

I'll be there. In my mind it is the first step towards the new cruising season and a chance to look at the bits on sale plus a few bargains.

Mind you the travel pass don't half 'elf guv - init!

Not sure this year. As I am relocating to Bournemouth on the 3rd of Jan things may be a little hectic. Would like to go, but will probably be limited to weekends.

Boot was indeed a hoot last year, hopefully this year they have some of the missing exhibitors back. Dont think its going to be possible to go this year because of work etc
