Enjoyable club show. Didn't manage to spot any RMWebbers, always next year! East Lynn and especially Monks Hill took my fancy and Jim Connor's books and small London vignettes were a good find too.

Oops...caught on camera! Not some Pythonesque Hand of God squishing the little people, but Shelob had spun a web between two signal post finials and I'm attempting to remove the stringy bits.

 

Enjoyable show which was packed to capacity in the morning. On East Lynn we were expecting the afternoon to die a death with the Cup Final on, but no, the afternoon was very busy too.

 

Good to catch up with and meet for the first time a number of RMwebbers there.
