TOPIC: Derby Worlds New Venue |
Standard User Posts: 12 Froggy 2nd Oct 2017 12:09:44 Derby Worlds Show is this Weekend. A reminder that the show is not at Castle Donnington this year, but at Bruntingthorpe between Rugby and Leicester, near Lutterworth. http://www.derbyworlds.com featuring Baccus 6mm and others. |
That'll be Derby, Leicestershire then, as opposed to Leicester, Derbyshire? A little goes a long way |
Standard User Posts: 12 Froggy 3rd Oct 2017 01:54:43 Actually, I think it's all part of the ancient kingdom of Mercia. As long as Peter and the Baccusmobile can find it I will be happy. It's a Midlands thing, I believe. We have Warwick University which is in Coventry about 10 miles north. Coventry University used to be known as Lanchester Polytechnic. Lanchester* is in County Durham. So Derby Worlds in Leicestershire is about normal for hereabouts. * Actually named after Frederick Lanchester |
No wonder the 5th Columnists made so little progress. A little goes a long way |
