I paid £21 on the day and felt thoroughly ripped off
I only went to meet up with UKMOC Rob, and a few others - saw Colin, Johnathon and Peter from Essex along with bumping into a load of industry people - but otherwise I wouldn't have gone. Fortunately work is only down the road so it wasn't out of my way. I left work at 12pm and was back at my desk by 4pm and we walked round 3 times...
Having been to Milan back in November, I don't think I'll ever go to another UK show. Milan is massive - beyond comprehension massive. There are two large halls and one smaller at Milan; the large halls are both about the size of Excel itself! You cannot do it in a single day and see everything. It cost us £50 to get there on a return flight from Stansted and we got cheap tickets through the Milan Ducati Club, which were €14 or ~£10.50 and we got loads of "real" freebies to bring home, not just a carrier bag with a flyer in it. It really was worth the additional cost to get there.
I think we need to arrange a trip to Milan this year...
