I don't remember seeing mine in the post yet.

I remember some previous years it arrived months before and I had to remember where I'd put it!

My badge and single sheet show guide arrived today with a stack of other mail, I guess it may possibly have been stuck in the system.

Got mine a couple of days ago. I wonder which day will be cancelled though?

There's a growing rumour that the funeral will be the Monday.

Now confirmed as the Monday and a Bank Holiday.

Was told by the organisers last night that the show would be closed on the day of any funeral and the show would run for 3 days instead of 4. Tickets to be transferable and stand holders to get discount for next year.

Given the show will be closed on the 19th, what plans do you have for the Monday if, like me, you are going to be there for all four days?

A discount is all well and good but they are losing the profits from the day they are closed.

Quite - it seems the wrong decision to me.

A ‘rock and hard place’ scenario for the organisers- and likely the exhibitors.

I might watch a bit of the funeral, then perhaps some gentle sight-seeing?

The Photography Show website isn't clear on what they will do.

"Following the very sad news of Her Majesty's passing, we are awaiting further information on the protocol expected over the coming days. We will update everyone with more details as soon as we can."

But I guess it will be closed on Monday.

We already know they will be closed on Monday. I think we also now know that their webmaster doesn't work on weekends!

sd photography54 indeed :) and some of us have postponed photoshoots due to locations being closed or people wishing not to shoot that day. Anyone with a hotel booked already could post a casting call perhaps.

I know not everyone will want to work that day, I myself don't mind, and I cried like a baby Thursday and Friday and have been quite emotional about it all, but wouldn't find working to be disrespectful, and other models may feel the same.
