Llangollen garden railway festival 2022

Apart from me, Philp, Brixham, TAC and Gizzy how many will be at the show?
I shall be there too, on the 16mm modular layout, longish ponytail, beard, usually look like I've been dragged through a hedge backward as they say in the Black-country. Do say hello if you are passing and see me.

I ordered my ticket last week. Because of my potential mad travel plan next week,, I need my ticket by Monday 9th. Will I receive it by then?

Our tickets arrived yesterday 9th May having booked on line late last week....

Gizzy plus the significant other one, otherwise known as Mizzy....
 
I will be there, we have a hotel booked for Friday night, but Lisa won't be coming to the show , she will have a wander round the town instead , i had booked Friday and Saturday off at work but now I'm retired man of leisure I'm off every weekend . :D :D :D :D :D
 
Yep, got tickets will be there, may visit a few old haunts and pay my respects to the late lamented Jenny Jones public house,
if those walls could talk :D :angel::drunk::rofl: God bless Kevin and Lorna, they fed and watered us, kept us in order while we built a railway.
 
Hope to be there but had a look at the site and the car park looks very small for an centre of its size, what exactly are the car parking arrangements? if its go find the nearest available parking in town, I might be travelling a long way for nothing as walking a long way to the show is something I'm not capable of and I won't be arriving at opening as my wife wants to do something else first thing Saturday.
 
Car parking arrangements are
Arrive,,show steward your ticket, park car in our gated car park..
No ticket..buy a Llangollen garden railway festival ticket £10, off steward, 1 per car..
Park car in our gated car park..use the ticket to gain admission for 1 adult.
We have enough capacity...the venue is a international music festival site and has parking for over 500 cars if needed ..we have options to open other car parks if requiredScreenshot_20220510-184507_Maps.jpg

If, on the odd chance, anybody might want to talk to me, I'll be wearing my Accucraft baseball hat and a bright red hoodie with 'Tillamook -Oregon' on it, and carrying a dark-green backpack marked CANADA.

On the other hand, if you want to make sure of avoiding me at all costs I'll still be wearing the same duds.

I have to ask you to be patient if you DO decide to talk to me - I'm pretty much deaf, and although I'll be wearing my ear trumpets they are not that clever in crowded spaces.

Very enjoyable day. I spent an hour in the small hall, bought a few items then had some lunch. I was about to go back to the car when I discovered there was also a large hall - a very very large hall!

Well done to all involved. A really good show.

Yep, echo that Rik, enjoyed the day, apart from forgetting the camera :oops: Met up with quite a few Llangollen Railway volunteers and Isle of Man 15mm group members,
only one small moan, the cafe seamed struggle keeping up with demand with long ques all day, perhaps a few other stale/vans outlets would help?
A good day out, after waiting 2 years. the organisers can go home happy.
 
Brilliant effort by all involved. Lots of stuff to see and buy. Spent more than I should......
Bit more signage would have been useful, lots wandering around trying to find the way in. Overall excellent and the weather played ball too. No show pictures but here's one of the station.......
