Elex 2003 Event City.....well That's 2 Hours Of My Life I'll Never Get Back

[kerching]

Arrived at 1000, pre registered so just a quick swipe and I'm in, avoiding all the throng awaiting a free T shirt

Knipex funky pliers/cutters......forget it! NO VDE ones on the stand for sale. Could barely cut 25s with them, pants for stripping. Bloke blamed somebody abusing them on their poor performance....no fecking good to me then,

,

Amtech did not turn up, so no fight!

Got a nice pen off Fluke and think I have decided on a 1652c unless the jury knows better ?

Bought another set Mega from Super rod, plus free bag, whisk, grapple hook, 2 swivels, metal swan neck. Also bought a set of racketeers....been looking at them for ages, as they are USA it was a NoNo but Superrod are now the importers. Nice wireless camera on their stand....too many£ for me at present....but next on list

Forgot to Fo to dewalt stand about 9180 batteries.

Tony Cable on about different types of lamp,reflector? WTF??

Nice biros and bags at ELECSA Stand

NICEIC Free software out this month definitely......or it may be July or August. So 7 months late then ( ish)

Got free T shirt on way out

Attractive scantily clad females , there were a few, but then again too few to mention .

Bought somemWagos

In summary............don't bother ..........other opinions are available but not necessarily correct !

 

[Sharpend]

Thanks for scouting it out, my gut was right to avoid it then!

 

[OnOff]

If you sold your Time Machine you could afford that camera..................

i think steps was referring to me  

i done a trip back to the car with some stuff that we had purchased at the show and got accosted by some random bloke whom demanded to know why i had 3 sets of super rods in the back of my car (noting that there was myself, street & zeespark)  this bloke continued on to demand that i gave him a set of rods as it was only fair  this continued on till i told him to politely go away (ok maybe not so politely)  << insert swear words where you feel they are required

walked off gobsmacked that some random bloke would approach a female on her own in such a way... good job i give as good as i get really, had it been someone else  i.e a female on their own they would have been scared out their skin i would imagine.

Well if they were free then he should have got there earlier!

if you paid for them then he needs to get a life!

If you were there Thursday I was the one with the Racketeers AND the RODS?.....nearly took a security guards eye out with them....he wasn't as fast on his pins as he thought he was

 

[Zeespark]

Mrs, if anything had kicked off there, My bet would have been that this plank would have gotten a good kicking from everyone in there, so He was wise to do one after you had told Him to.
