The Natural Stone Show 2011

[Dan]

Hi everybody,

I'm pleased to announce that TilersForums.co.uk will be exhibiting at The Natural Stone Show 2011 - March 15th to the 17th.

We're on stand H10 with 365Drills and Tileution.
Mapei are on stand B26.
LTP are somewhere apparently too but I can't find them on the copy of the exhibitors list that I have so I'll get back to you on that one.

Information here: The Natural Stoneshow 2011 - ExCel, London and here: The Natural Stone Show 2011 - Profit from the showcase event for the UK tile and stone industry

And you can register by clicking the banner on the left in the sponsors section.

Registration is free, and it's over three days, so hopefully you'll be able to attend one of the days. But not to worry if not.

We'll have some coffee for people who come see us, though there are loads of stone firms to get in touch with. We all know stone is very popular in the industry and it seems to still be a growing trend so you could find some nice contacts there.

[johnryan]

thanks for that. just registered for my show badge.

[Sir Ramic]

I have registered but unlikely that I will be able to make it. If i do it will only be a short visit as I will need to get there and back in the same day.
Rail travel is too expensive, shame there werent more from around here willing to share car .

[Dan]

I'd take you Neale but we're there the day before to the day after the show. So unless you're in it for the long-haul I'm no use for you.

[Sir Ramic]

Cheers Dan but it would only be a one dayer for me anyway.

[Dan]

Perhaps we need some car sharing going on then from the midlands and north for those that are travelling so far?

If anybody is interested in cadging a spare seat, or offering your own spare seats out to others, then please do respond to the thread with details and locations etc.

Thanks in advance.

[Sir Ramic]

If anyone is going for the one day and is travelling M5, M42, M40 way then I could meet up somewhere.

[Ken Bruty]

Just got my badge through the post today, really looking forward to it, and going up with my other half, will defo come and visit the stand. See ya there

[Sir Ramic]

Nothing planned as yet mate, Got my ticket but all dates available at the moment . Who knows though.

[deanotile]

pm me if you want to share. i will be driving and coming back the same day so its no prob to pick you up.

[Tabby Cranks]

Will Tileution be putting their machine up for a test?

[Sir Ramic]

Will Tileution be putting their machine up for a test?

I wouldnt have thought he would have enough room to be honest.

[Tabby Cranks]

Thats a shame. Would love to see it in action.

[Dan]

There is enough room and he was going to, yeah. However hes had some other commitments and has to attend some things in Germany. So it's me, Laura and Richard from 365drills.

[Tabby Cranks]

Shame.

[Daz]

Can they lend you a machine Dan? I'm sure we can find a few walls to spray

[weechris]

i think I will be going, not sure which day yet. Not worked with natural stone yet, so hoping to learn something!

[365drills]

Just been up to Excel to unload the stand....



Its been shoved into stand H10 and sort of set up but I got given a load of grief by security for taking too long to unload
(A car gets 15 minutes)

So the stand is sort of shoved into the space for tonight and on the actual day of the show (tommorow) I will get there early to make it tidy.

Going to drop my little girl off at Nursery 8am and subject to M11 traffic and parking will be on site about 9am to 9.30am

See you all there at the show !!!

[enduro]
