The official IWA show in Nuremberg thread. More guns, more fun.
I'm trying to get the company to pay for me to go.
Sounds like fun, went a few years ago when I was still in the trade, a day isn't near enough, spent it rushing around doing the brochure collecting for everything and anything that the customers could have desired, unfortunately I didn't get to spend much time at the stands that interested me. At the end of the day I came away with a big rucksack full of stuff

Sounds a lot like the SHOT Show. I learned my first time, not to grab stuff............it slows you down

probably me, just some details to solve...

Back in March 2004, HK hosted me as their guest in Oberndorf and then at IWA over the weekend; fun times!

How much are the hotels? All booked up?
Is there a shuttle from the hotels to the show?

$624 round trip from Portland, Oregon to Nuremberg.
Tickets purchased.
II'm down for a get-together. I may need to rent a hotel in town if I'm planning on beers though.
I'm staying in Bamberg
I could be in. Depends on some other things; I could be interviewing for a job.
However, I may make it. No idea where I'm staying, someone else has arranged that.
So lets recap,
Coctailer
Chefie
THellURider
Myself
Did I miss anyone??

I may need to try this place for breakfast.
These days hangovers take longer than they used to, to get out of my system. So I tend to only drink one or two beer's, and no chasers...
Old age sucks.
