Andy Y Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I've been up at the show this evening and there's some very good content and the cakes aren't half bad! Good luck for the weekend all. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodenhead Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Arghh I missed Tan-yr-Aullt But other than that a nice show, spent most of my time hanging around Axmouth and Camel Quay, but as my thing is Southern that's unsurprising. The trade support was interesting and in a good way, plenty of secndhand retailers, had a good mooch and picked up a couple of coaches that I have been looking for. Plenty to see and lots of car parking. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack374 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Another great show by BELMRS, plenty of cracking layouts and excellent trade and demo/society support. I was running New Bryford with Mick & crew all weekend, on what I believe is the layout's last (planned) home appearance. Despite the usual small niggles, it ran perfectly, and I had a great weekend, so many thanks to both the NB team for inviting me, and the BELMRS crew for a cracking show. Below are a few photos of NB, unfortunately I didn't get any photos of other layouts as I had very little time for a wander, but on a brew trip I got one of the main hall... Thanks, Jack. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
