Thanks
Sam,
Great to meet you and everyone else who kept me amused for the full weekend. And thanks to you all who answered (mainly) mine and Nick's (daft) questions all weekend. Had a great time and got lots of new ideas to go and think about.
Cheers All
Thanks again

Well..........
Hi All
well Billing was good if you are into Land Rovers, meeting friends and/or new acquaintances, looking for kit, etc, etc - I did a few of the above and it was a very useful day.
Going forwards I think a Hubb/overlander meet would be great - so check out the thread and lets get organising.

I could possibly arrange a nice venue on an large/estate farm - but it would be in the Norfolk Broads which isn't very central....

I was at billing, was good, picked some bits up for my 110 project.
I saw Matt beavering away, was going to say "hi" but he looked busy selling stuff, so i didn't want to bother him, but "Hi Matt!" anyway... :-)

Hi!!
I was busy a bit. But it was an 'average' Billing as far as the turnover went. But as always, our hospitality set up was bigger than the selling part!!
Cheers,
Matt

Didn't you mention something about a 'post Billing' special hubb discount sales bargain bin overstocked all stock must go type sale to all those that asked nicely this week only Matt?
Or did the wind blur the message as it travelled to me from afar....?

Yes Darrin, thank you for pointing that out!
What Darrin is pushing me to say, is that as Billing was a bit (only a bit) of a flop for me, I do have quite a few compressor kits in stock. In fact more than I do normally.
So I was thinking of selling some off cheap! (cheap ish!!)
I'm going away on holiday now for a few days, and I won't have the time to sort out what's what now. But, when I get back I will make a list of things that'll be cheap. It is mostly on board compressor kits. But I need to figure it out first.
So, wait for a week or so and I'll make a list and post it on here.
Thanks Darrin, Mr Motivator!!
Cheers,
Matt
PS, my wife has just made the most gorgeous looking lemon cake... yum yum..
