Sometimes it is a little bit frustrating! Everyone is going to the shopping convention "Salute", but to visit Hamburg it is to long and expensive?
Dont talk about coming, do it in 2011. You can order your stuff via internet, miss the salute and come to Hamburg. Try somethig new....
I can understand your frustration that this wonderful looking show doesn't attract more visitors from the UK in particular.
I'd love to come.
On a purely economic basis however, it costs me 20 GBP to travel to Salute and get in. To come to Hamburg for the weekend, flights, hotels, meals etc, would cost me at least 200 GBP - so it's not that small a decision (especially as I already have a trip to Kiel in May!)
Plus I don't need to get permission from my wife to go to Salute.
To disappear to Germany for the weekend is somewhat more difficult - as I am finding out
