Why no advert for S4north on UKModelshops?

Postby CPartington » Sat Apr 02, 2016 12:17 pm

I like to see what's going on in the North by looking on the UK Modelshops guide, here - http://www.ukmodelshops.co.uk/events#.UV9qgjdc3Xw
but there is no entry there for S4North, which is one of my favourite exhibitions. Is this an oversight or is it policy?

I've also commented recently on use - or not - of the 'Directory', but maybe part of the problem is its title. Unless you know by having visited it, you could be excused for thinking it was just a list of shops. Personally, while I have consulted that bit from time to time, I've always found the Events and Suppliers sections the most useful. Now that Events don't have much relevance for me, I still look up suppliers from time to time and it mystifies me why not all of them keep their entries up-to-date. Since listing of Events is free, I don't see why the Society, or the organisers of specific Society events, don't use it. Maybe one of 'them' could explain?

I would imagine an oversight - I believe we normally list our shows there.

An oversight. As has been said, something called "UK Model Shops" is not the natural place that one would expect to find a listing of exhibitions...

I'll send the show details over on Sunday.
