Kevin. Family are more important than attending swap meets. Your dad understandibly takes priority. We can meet up again probably next year at Birmingham. Take care of your dad mate.

OK, my trip to Scotland (Scotmodel2014), is not happening, I told Father this morning I was not going and we would do something together instead. This has cheered him up, so for the Sunday I said we would go to a toy fair in Chipping Norton, in the Cotswolds. This has cheered him up even more so and he is talking about buying his first model Bentley to start his collection...so I think I have done the right thing.

I have been to this little event before so I know how much room there is for Father to get around with his walker and parking is very easy with plenty of room as it takes place at the school on Burford road, Chipping Norton.

I'm sure I went to this fair once about 10 years ago. Nice little fair, so you'll have a great time for sure and a very pleasant part of the country to visit.

Cheers,
