Looking forward to seeing the Super 8mm titles David. Derann 90's features will always sell at a good price if in good condition, if that is what is included in the collection.

Good news above. I read it just now after booking my rail tickets and hotel. Pity the £5 off code sent to me by Virgin didn't work for this - they did say it was for "Selected" advance fares obviously this wasn't one.

Make lots if it's getting too much? I'd love to see auctions running some time, but not all day :-) Have other tables to see also :-)

If nothing goes wrong up to that point, yes :-) Plane, hotel sorted. Only unsure if we need to book train/bus tickets or can just hop on like in London

Vidar, if you and your four friends are going to be in Blackpool on the Saturday night,why don't you come to the Convention dinner. A good three course meal is served,a film quiz is held during the three courses of the meal with a prize for the winner, then there's a raffle with film related prizes and we finish off with a film show. You'll meet plenty of friendly fellow film collectors to chat to and can promise you and your friends a warm welcome. The dinner is quite informal you don't have to dress up some come in jeans and a T-shirt and that's fine I'd say the only dress code is wear some clothes, no nudists Ha Ha! You and your friends are traveling all the way from Norway so you and your friends might as well experience all that is going on during the film convention week-end
