bbishop Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Gellert, It might not be a bad idea to advise people that a Food Hygiene Certificate and an Insurance Certificate will be available for inspection. And that you have no links with a certain Dakota Dibben (briefly of this parish). Sorry, I won't be with you - setting up an exhibition in Birmingham.

And that you have no links with a certain Dakota Dibben (briefly of this parish). Sorry, I won't be with you - setting up an exhibition in Birmingham. Bill Hi Bill! Yes - I have just read the "short" forum about the Arundel exhibition. Just to make some points clear - every exhibition we pay for the exhibitor's full expense (however much we have made, so if we have had 2 visitors, we will stay pay for their expenses -- I have the receipts from last year that were signed by me and the exhibitor that they have got their money (which was the same as what they put down in the booking form), if anyone requests this, this can be shown or I can send you a picture over email). There will be valid insurance that can be viewed at any time - just ask any of the stewards and they will be able to show you, or direct yourself towards me so I can show you. Also, this goes for a Food Hygiene Certificate which can be viewed if requested. There is plenty of space in the car park at the actual hall, however we will also have an overflow car park like last year (both car parks are free of charge for visitors). And last but not least, some of the money will be going to charity (Railway Children (hence why all the stewards will be wearing Railway Children tshirts) - last year's certificate that we donated can be viewed if requested), and the rest of the money is put aside to organise the next year's exhibition - meaning that I don't get any personal finance out of it, I just do it because I love the hobby and people requested the exhibition since there isn't an exhibition in Elmbridge. If anyone has any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me! You can either get in touch with the generic email (info@waltonmodelrailwayexhibition.co.uk), or my personal exhibition one (gkiss@waltonmodelrailwayexhibition.co.uk -- due to less spam on this email, you will get a quicker response), or via phone (07763438150 (I may not be able to pick up but if you leave me a VoiceMail or a text message, I will certainly call back)). Kind regards, Gellért Kiss PS: I have no links to Dakota Dibben, and he isn't exhibiting at our exhibition due to the negative publicity he brings. EDIT: I also have a fresh first aid certificate (was renewed May 2018), which isn't a legal requirement, however is advised -- so all volunteers, exhibitors and visitors will be safe Edited May 30, 2018 by 01.gellert 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbishop Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Gellert, Well done. But take your own first aid kit, you may find the bandages in the church kit are just a teeny weeny bit out of date. Also a luggage label with the church's post code attached to the kit - just in case you have an emergency and need to ring 999. Bill 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

01.gellert Posted June 4, 2018 Author Share Posted June 4, 2018 Hi. Does any of the income from this shown go to supporting a model railway clu? Dave. Hi Dave, As mentioned previously, some of the profits will go to Railway Children, and the rest will go into organising next year's exhibition.
