BC Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Hey guys, What a brilliant day!! Well done to you guys, sorry I wasnt much help. I knew it would be a success. It was brilliant to meet the guys again and meet a few new ones. I picked up a few models from brianih and from Andy. Eventually had to stay away from their tables ;D . Looking forward to next years show already. Would love to have something done up for next years show work permitting. So what up next Bill? Ronan, Nice to meet up again and I'm glad you enjoyed the show. What's next...trying to get a first draft of the show report to run past Andy and Brian tonight so it can make the next Model Farmer magazine due out at the end of June.

brianih634 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Thanks guys for all your kind words. The show was a resounding success all round for us, so much so that we will be able to make a considerable size donation, which will be split two ways, to two charities. We will post up the two charities once we have chosen which ones,(we never expected to raise enough money to be able to do so, therefore had not thought about which ones up until now). The show team - Andy, Bill, Laurie and myself would also like to thank all the people who helped us out to make the day run smoothly. Now, lets get started on the plans for next years show :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Yes plan for next years show Brian... not enough time or energy left to plan for an Autumn one in 2011 ;D ... but this first one has been amazing and a big thanks must go to the exhibitors and traders who helped make the show happen and of course the 960 spectators who turned up on the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were quite a few more tables, mainly traders, but I did not get pictures of them. Enjoy Thanks for looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
