After many years of good intention I finally managed to  get to see the Penarth exhibition

for the first time yesterday. I thought it was a good show, some layouts I had enjoyed before,

and a number that were new to me.

It was a friendly show, I enjoyed lengthy conversations with several operators,

and it was good to catch up with a few people I have met before.

 

Thank you to the organisers and exhibitors.

 

cheers
