I'd love to go but the show runs against London's Coinex week this year. Not to mention a four day Kuenker sale in Osnabrueck the same week, which I will probably cover in a day trip from London.

In other words, it's hard enough being in two places at the same time. Three is impossible.

Andy, I brought that to their attention, but they were at the mercy of the hotel availability

I wanted to attend COINEX this year too.
