An excellent opportunity to pick up some current CWs. Maybe some older ones too. :-k :-k

Presumably at Nearly New, or thereabouts, price levels.

I might have been on for this but, unfortunately (or fortunately for my bank balance), I'm away for the weekend on the North Yorkshire coast, with my partner and I don't think she'd be too pleased if I high tail it to Maidenhead for the day. :problem: :lol: :lol:

Has anyone been to one of these before? I booked on when I saw the email and then realised I have the pleasure of looking after my two kids this weekend (my wife is away). Whilst I'm sure the promise of some ice cream after the appointment would mean they would be ok to be dragged along, I suspect this event will involve a greater number of people in the showroom (and therefore childcare may be more difficult in a busier environment, plus bringing guests along may not be permitted)

@kev017

I feel you ought to be fine, Kev.

The whole point of a booking / appointment system will surely be to avoid an unruly crush.

Moreover, CW currently has two 'individual' showrooms suitable for 1 - 4 people that are private, and one 'Group' showroom suitable for up to 6 - 8(?) people that is a little more open.

Some photos taken in mid-October '24 before CW had fully moved into The Yard;-

Have a good and successful visit.

Not sure about that Guy…

The booking slots are 2 hours apart - rather different to the usual personal booked appointments.

To me that indicates a bunch of folk turning up for each two hour slot, rather than an individual slot.

I got as far as selecting the 10:00am session and noticed that subsequent sessions were 2 hours apart, otherwise I wouldn’t have known. In the end I changed my mind and didn’t book.
