Anything happening this year at Alexandra Palace we should know about?

I look forward to meeting a lot of us forum folk there.

Chris and I will be on the X1 Stand F19, surprisingly near the Ale Bar in Hall 2 (West Hall - see http://www.lightning368.org/lnwp/filelibrary/classdocs/2012_show_plan.pdf - floor plan ).

At some point I'll be on the b14 stand, C58 (stand B14 appears to be too small to fit a boat!), not-quite-opposite Y&Y

I will probably go, I will be on the megabyte stand.  Do not expect to see me; I will be wearing a cloak of invisibility.

The D1 stand looks to be about the same size as Laser Performance's corporate stand!

Perhaps we should all make badges of our avatars so we shall recognise our own? Evil Smile

The D1 has quite a large stand marked out (large for a single class that is), whilst laser performance, with the same area, have a really rather small stand compared to the other big manufacturers. It's an interesting contrast.

I will prob end up going at some point. Might be both days working on a stand but yet to find out if I can due to work (day job).

I've only just noticed the numbers around the edges of the stands...
Assuming those are metres, the D-One has a 9x4 stand, LP has 10 x 5.
 
Ovi have 19 x 8
RS have 19 x 12
Hartley have 19 x 10
Topper International have 10 x 12 (and the Topper CA has a seperate stand)

Look how small the LaserPerformance stand is.... I guess that's one of the advantages of having the RYA programme promote your product on their stand also.
