Nooooooooo! That's a disaster! One of my favourite events. Gives me a bit more time to get the engine finished I guess, hope it's still on later in the year.

Everything will be "Later in the year " in September.
It will be a disaster as there will be so many on at the same time they will not get the attendance required to cover costs.
And fewer exhibits.
Even if they are allowed to run them.
