Perfect is the enemy of Finished. I presume. I've never achieved either.

Thanks for those pictures Dave, saved me downloading, editing and posting mine  ;D

The thing that struck me most about the show was the amount of interaction we had with both fellow modellers and indeed non-modellers and their kids. Whilst the first was probably due to our proximity to the refreshment area  :angel:  the later was very much, in my opinion anyway, due to shows organisers policy of free entry. Dave sat on the door extracting charity donations from anyone foolish enough to stop for a chat  :rolleyes: , but this meant that passers by could wander in for half an hour or so and get an idea of what was going on. This was particularly true in the morning when there were loads of other activities going on in both the school and nearby.

So well done to all those involved in coming up with this policy  :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:

The date of this year's show was confirmed in mid-November last year, so 🤞 similar will happen this year.

I'll announce the date as soon as I become aware of it.
