So North, East, South, West and City Centre
but i think the one in the east (dalmarnock) has fallen through as they're looking for a new site.

Do you know what day(s) this falls on?

Thanks Alan. Depending on the days I could probably nip up.

Also going on friday - let me know if you wanna grab a beer.

Cheers James. Will be in a group, and wrangling children and festival noobs so may be a bit difficult for me to get away, but will try and remember to message you on the Friday in case we can meet up.

Sorry, just realised I was being dumb, didn't read your post properly. Is just me and my wife today, so can easily meet up. Think rimmer is also going?

dropped you a message on FB - we will be to the left of the soundboard i think... heading up there for about 3 - 3.30 i think. Hopefully see you both there!

Sounds cool, give me a shout if you want to grab a pint, my studio only a few streets away from the mural you posted

[jpfondu]

Cool man

just watching some old favourite tracks on youtube from the early 90s - where does the time go and how was that 20 years ago because it seems like about 5 minutes

Morning, just been catching up on this thread. Good to see all the chat about sleeves, will be looking for some further down the line. Next noob-ish question, once in the sleeve what's the best way to store/keep them flat? Cheers.

Plan Chest/ Flat File/ Architects draws.

Or between two pieces of acid free foam core with bulldog clips.

It's largely down to your budget/space. Ideally, a flat file cabinet. Whatever you use, the main thing is to make sure it's acid free (MDF is meant to be bad). Many use acid free foam core as a cheap solution, or clip frames. I had to stop using that kind of solution when I got the sleeves though, as they slide about a bitt too much. I few of us have built custom boxes out of wood/ply

Thanks for the feedback. Gives me something to go on as I start my art collection

[rimmer]

Talking of flat files,I got this today,my friend made this for me for my birthday.
Only trouble is i have to keep tilting it to get it under the bed, any thoughts on if it's safe to
store in the garage?

[AlanCampbell]

yeah i wouldn't store it in the garage, cold and damp

[rimmer]

yeah i've had the same thought since

[fitz]

yeah i've had the same thought since

yeah I thought about putting mine in the garage and even though its part of the house I still decided against it - just ended up wedging it under the bed as best I could manage.
