Looking forward to the show. Clearwater Harbor is almost ready and the C4 Picasso is being converted into a pseudo 'Transit Van'.

 

From my $60 Chinese phone, the crew are washing up ready for a the trip.

 

 

cheers

Morning all,

 

Good set up last night with approximately half the layouts/traders in place - rest to follow this morning.

 

Drop by and say hello

Thanks to all at Burgess Hill for the help in getting the layout in and out and for putting on a great and friendly show.

Thanks to everyone who attended the show as an exhibitor, trader or visitor.

 

All appeared to go smoothly and we had some nice feedback. The weather was kind too which was great as it didn't seem to affect numbers and plus my youngest son was outside on car park duty most of the day

 

I had some nice interest in my 2mmFS demonstration stand and although I only managed to build about 6"of track, lots of nice chats and discussions were had throughout the day. Was pretty tired in the evening after we helped clear up the halls though!

 

Here's a few pics I took before my iPhone told me I was out of storage

And as Mike Yarwood used to say as he closed his show..."this is me"

 

 

Am hoping to hear back soon from the BHMRC committee on details of a 2018 show.

 

Many thanks all,

Clear Water Harbor looks like a well executed layout    Presume it's NG?

 

Good to hear the show was well received Pete. By the standard set here hopefully it will return next year.

 

Cheers,

Thanks Mark - I believe Clearwater Harbor is 0N30 - which am guessing is NG

 

Yes, am awaiting to hear soon about a show next year.
