3 is for . . . Err . . . Less Than a Week? Bargain!

As you can't have missed if you're on the internet, the 33rd Plastic Warrior show for collectable toy soldiers and model figures is this coming Saturday in the Harlequin Suite, at the Winning Post public house (Fayre Square) and Motel (Premier Inn), in Whitton on the edge of Twickenham, south-east London.

The Map! Actually I think I've cropped it better in the past, but hey-ho! The venue is less than 2-minutes walk from Whitton railway station, well served with buses and can be approached by road from anywhere in the UK! Seriously though - It's on the A316 main-drag into London from the M3, with connections to Hounslow/Heathrow just to the North.

Google Earth - There's plenty of parking (looked at last year) but remember if you are driving, the 316 has a permanent, solid, central reservation for that whole section effectively making it one way in both directions from the Hospital Bridge Road roundabout (bottom left) to the Twickenham High Street roundabout (off the top right-hand corner), so if you are coming out of London you will need to go round and come back up, if you miss it you will have to do the whole loop down to 'Twickers' National Rugby Stadium and back up past The Stoop - home of the Harlequins.

The pub is open from eight, so you can wait in comfort if you get there early, and they serve breakfast 'till 11am, coffee all day and alcohol from eleven  'till late.

PW's page noted there is a cash-machine on site, with more facilities in Whitton village.

This is the sight that you're looking for to turn left, or at least - it is if you're in the wrong lane and bringing a lorry, otherwise look-out for the rendered, white-painted, low, brick-wall!
