o Gerry Vallely wants INVM and others to show at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham (CM 16-22 July).
Unfortunately there isn't one. The National Exhibition Centre, despite being called "Birmingham's NEC" and "NEC Birmingham" and having the postal address Birmingham B40, is not and never has been in Birmingham.
No doubt he, your magazine and others have been brainwashed by Birmingham and NEC advertising, but the truth is that the NEC, Birmingham International Airport, Birmingham International Station, Birmingham Men-opole Hotel and Birmingham Business Park are not in Birmingham but in Solihull, which is a sepa. rate Metropolitan District. Presumably if people can find the National Motor Cycle Museum, Solihull. as listed in your magazine, they could find the NEC Solihull, so please list it and refer to it as such.
