Best in Show!

blog-0410366001416095561.jpgSecond show done. Was wondering, at 5 o'clock this morning as I got up and after spending pretty much all day yesterday packing the layout and cleaning track and wheels est. , if any of the punters paying their £3 to get into the show would appreciate it. Well, it looks like they did and I have a trophy to prove it! A huge amount of work and absolutely knackered now but worthwhile and what it is all about really.

 

Big Thank You to Andy for putting together a surprisingly extensive show and all the nice people we met today. I say 'we' as little Iz (all nine years of her), insisted on coming and was impeccably behaved and actually pretty useful!

 

Have learned a bit more, which will be translated into more improvements before the next outing to Nottingham in March.

 

So here it is and off to bed!

Sorry, forgot to say Thank You for the kind comments that preempted this post  and were left on the previous one!

Once again I would like to say well done on your award yesterday. It was well deserved as I thought your layout was one of the stand out ones in the show. The modelling of locos, stock and bombed buildings were superb and were very well presented with the lighting, back scene and barbed wire. This layout is a must view at Nottingham.

A word for Iz. She was a credit to you. Impeccably behaved and did well operating the layout. I hope some of our pupils will be inspired by the sight of someone of similar age operating such a great show layout.

Thanks again for coming.

Whoohoo!  Great stuff - congratulations.  I'm sure your daughter must be very proud of her father, too.

Thanks very much for all the kind comments but not being one to sit on any laurels (they are far too uncomfortable!), will make sure that it all works even better next time - see next post for details.

Well-deserved congratulations!  I've followed your blog since  the early days, and it's nice to see all that hard work being appreciated.
