"Apparently the 2-day Guildex lost £37K."
Blimey that was careless of them!!!
It does make me wonder if it shouldn't go down to a one-day Show. Even if I had the time I wouldn't go for 2 full days - it's just not that big to require it.
Still it seems a strange statistic given the current boom in O Scale in the UK. But maybe that boom isn't translating into new members of the Guild. I'm not, & have no need to be, either.
