There will be a Carrera fun track, but no actual racing.

A few people have been asking me for directions to the Crofton Halls, so here is a link to multimap.

if you can't access the map, here are some directions.

I guess most people wiil be arriving from the M25, so take junction 4 from here, only one way off the motorway so you should not make a wrong turn!
At the next roundabout take the A224, direction Orpington.
keep going until you see the A232, turn left and go on till the next roundabout, straight across here, under the railway bridge and you will see the station on the right, look past the station and you should see the Crofton hall complex, car park is at the rear of the building and there will be signs to the entance for the show.
10 minutes max. from the motorway

Looking forwards to seeing anyone from the forum.

Thanks to everyone who attended the show today, I think it was a great success

and I will be holding the 2nd show Saturday 18th December.

Thanks for the feedback, Jamie.

If any one else was there and you have any comments, complaints, suggestions etc. for future swapmeets it would be appreciated if you left some feedback.

This was my first swapmeet and I think I got it about right, but any thoughts on how to make it better would be great.

I can now confirm for the 18th December and for July 9th next year, in future years I will try and make these the regular dates, early July and late December.

Yea, not much I can do about the parking, if there had only been the slotcar show on it would have been better, but there was also a phone card fair and childrens party in the other smaller halls.

There is another car park down near the High street , but it is a bit of a walk! still as you say a bit of exercise never hurt you
