Ignoring the Post Covid changes in dates, for Salute and the London Marathon, is this upcoming Salute actually going to be the first ever held at Excel without the Marathon Masses?

I vowed never to go by train again after last years crazy platform throng and it appears someone heard me!

Maybe the Trekkies will make a return visit…

No longer two tribes glaring at each other across the concourse, the liberal gamers versus the sport fascists.
Always reminds me of that 1980's track "Two Tribes". LOL
(Yes I am that old)

Not the first time the 2 haven't coincided at Excel but it will be nice not to have all that lycra around. Doubtless there'll be half a dozen other events in the venue that day? The "Sherlock" nerds were the worst – made us gamers look positively normal?

Only thing I can see on that day, apart from Salute, is day two of The International Franchise Show. (No I don't have a clue either)

Apparently expecting 11,000 visitors over the two days. A drop in the London Marathon ocean!

I'm just glad it'll be the marathon runners and not the gamers wearing lycra!

There's a mental image I'm never going to be able to erase! 😲
