BC Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Damian's display! :of The work. . . . . The weight! I bet pasting tables weren't supporting that lot. Also, great photo John, of the North East Newly Weds. Some nice photos by everybody, I will attend at the first possibility. The show has always interested me but the distance was an issue you guys' pictures have now put the proof in the pudding Yes Tris I think it would be well worth the journey North .... but you would need to take an exhibit too to make the journey worthwhile ....I mean Penrith is actually around the centre of the United Kingdom for Scotland, England & Wales and Ireland . I really think this could turn into a really large show within the UK if it gets the support and so far all of the "profit" is for charity once expenses are covered.

It was a shame you did not get there John with your good lady since it was a great show and I'm sure if your wife didn't like model's then I'm I sure there was enough other shops etc for her to wander around in ....and offcourse window shop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 great photos bill a lot of time gone into the layouts and collections and like you say damian s is just outstanding lovely thanks for taking time to take the pictures Thanks Graham although looking back some shots are not really in focus. county999 has many of your lovely build's especially the milking parlour Damian's display is absolutely amazing I certainly would not have such a patience to do something in 1/32 scale... I just think I need to keep to my real life tractor's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tractor Twitcher Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Great photographs Mike, John and Bill, looks like a really good event, some amazing displays and layouts, Damian's attention to detail is nothing short of breathtaking, my jaw is still touching the ground.

BC Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 You need to see Damian's display to really appreciate it David because photo's do not do it justice. Mike , John and myself were almost inside the display to get photo's ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Peter, flash 600 and Colm... a really nice friendly show which I think could grow in time. I would recommend a visit to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Very much appreciate the time you have given for us who didn't go, Bill. Nice clear photos by your goodself. I like that JCB display and also the Britains display by the Arthurs. Very nice that and what all of us wantedd as children I dare say. As far as me exhibiting, not for a year or two. My display does not like travelling so Spalding is plenty far enough for Leverets. That is not to say a new display couldn't be built to aid travelling to more shows though. Leverets will have got smaller after Saturday anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Thanks Tris. Are you dowsizing Leverets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I am Bill, yes. It's an awkward thing to cart around so once the attic is ready to house my hobby I'll start building a new layout I think,specifically for travelling to shows with.

Big A Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 thats me home from my hols, good show last week, nice to meet up with some members hopefully be bigger and better next year, one thing needed is someone selling the new releases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Yes the show did lack new releases but I think as long as the show clashes with Zwolle the likes of G&M Farm Models are unlikely to attend. Mind you they come up to Perth in the Spring and Lanark in the Autumn so I get most of my new releases then. In addition they operate with a very fast and efficient courier and carriage is very reasonably priced ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 I was wondering if anyone knew if the date of the 2010 show is actually confirmed as Sunday 21st November 2010 ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCB BLOKE Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 Hi Bill.. I have just spoken to Harold and yes it's confirmed as Sunday 21st November this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Does Harold have a website or anything we can refer to for info/schedule or anything? Must be the only show that isn't spread via the web nowadays? \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
