Tickets have just gone on sale here. There are many options available with >pre-booked day tickets starting at �20 (�15 for Sunday) a discount of �5
over on-the-day prices. Of course, the convention has accommodation on
site and some may opt to stay for two nights B&B with a seat at the Gala DX >Dinner on Saturday evening. Every option in between is possible.
An excellent 3-course lunch is available each day at a very reasonable
price, parking is free and a shuttle bus runs to and from Milton Keynes >Central station with direct trains from East Croydon should you wish to
visit by train.
So theres really no excuse. Several CARC members will be heading that way
so sharing a lift is one of the best ways of getting to the convention.
Hope to see you there (Ive already bought my weekend ticket).
Mike, G0KAD. CARC Chair
Sooner spend a weekend at Blackpool..which says it all.
