Of course there should be considerations for members with the longest travel distance, so Jeff and I should be in the chosen group

If it comes to a draw, especially with the Beoworld robot, my chances go down to zero. I never won anything, regardless here on Beoworld or anywhere else.

i see black for me:

I am also in agreement with Duels and Soren and this would be how I enviasge my personal trip playing out. I have been meaning to visit Struer to go to B&O for many years now but never got round to it for different reasons.

Lee has a limit of 24 places for the reasons given, which is completely understandable. However, I do not believe this should in any way restrict anyone - regardless of membership 'status' or contribution from going and organising their own separate trip but coinciding it with the formal Beoworld trip allowing everyone the opportunity to meet socially. I would be very happy to organise this separate trip personally and if any other member would like to do it with me then great, just let me know and we can get on with it. We can go as enthusiasts without having to be ambassadors of Beoworld.

I believe that everyone who has a desire to go should do so and of course there is a lot of pleasure in wanting to naturally bond with others from this site who share the same interests and passion. Beoworld has brought us all together over the years but we should be mindful of not letting it also 'split' people into groups that are either 'good enough' or 'not good enough' to be part of something, that's ridiculous, egotistical and old school thinking. Everyone should be treated equally and fairly. If people want to pay and contribute that is their choice and we should not assume people do not contribute if they don't pay as no person knows another person's individual circumstances or situation.

Well what can I say????

These visits are one of the very best things about B&O, ever!

Do everything you can to get on it!

And from vague memory I seem to think a draw was held from those members that showed they wanted to take part in the (busy) visit.

Soren, have you been to the first floor of the museum, where an old man builds up a model railway. I have been there last year in september and talked to him alot about B&O, Struer and his very good german speech. This itself was worth the trip from Sondervig to Struer 🙂

I was there i May on a Friday, only visitor, the room with the railway was being rearranged and only workers there, I used about 2 hours in the museum, mostly downstairs, one of the nice ladies brought me water to drink (or she was checking that I didnt steal anything). She told me that typical visitors ran through the museum in 1/2 an hour, but vintage collectors like me stayed longer, she was also aware of the Beoworld site.

Funny, the same happened when I was there with my wife and my son. We three were the only visitors. One of the ladies came around to ask if everything is ok and If we want to have coffee for us and water for our little son.We've been there about 2 hours or more too. It Takes time to see and photograph everything you get to see.

Seems that there aren't much visitors going to the museum.

Hi everyone,

I guess the (potential) Spring 2018 trip to Struer could already be over-subscribed, judging by the number of "count me in"s in this thread so far 😁 Am I too late to add another one to the list?

As I'm now 30 years into my B&O addiction, Struer is heaven on earth for me....  Or as my wife so tactfully said "Why on earth would I want to go to the B&O Museum?  I LIVE in a B&O museum!" 👍

Kind regards, Steve.
