A lovely day in Stoke

[Chrisr]

I look a miserable git in the pics.

Not at all Ralph. Good to see you made it, and had a good time. Keep up the painting - you are doing some great work.

Don't worry Steve, I wouldn't want to show the others up with my George Clooney good looks....I think that's why they left me out!........LOL

Well, I know its hard when you're as good looking as we are - don't want to stand out too much...!!

I have to say here; I have spoken since the show to modellers who were there, but not pf members, who all remarked on there being a special atmosphere at the show.

I attempted to blame it on a mixture of white spirit, plastic cement and mushy peas from the caterers, but they all meant it was a great friendly vibe created by the club, exhibitors traders and modellers.

I agree it was a wonderful day.

I attend a lot of shows and was getting a bit fed up of hearing negativity before xmas 2016.

This year, without exception all the shows have been fun again
and very sociable, but this was fun plus for me.

Can I ask if possible to have the same format again next year Steve please?
Best wishes.

Paul.

Cheers Paul - its nice to know that the show had a good feel and that all the hard work was appreciated - I will pass on your comments and Im sure we will do it all again next year!

Huge thanks on behalf of SOTMC,

 

[swralph]

Hopefully I will make it next year.

 

[valiant]

Cheers Ralph - we hope you can make it, too

After all, there are not many times you hear the sentence, "a lovely day out in Stoke"!

I need to refresh my memory-was this the show that arose to take the place of Euromilitaire? How'd it go?

Prost!

No Brad - this was our third show as a regional club, but we were lucky to have incorporated Figureworld West as a "show within a show" - hopefully, the start of something regular...

Euro Expo has taken over from Euro Militaire, only run by modellers, for modellers, this time.

Ah, OK, thanks for clarifying! Well, I'm glad you guys had a good show. Are there other photos posted anywhere? It's always fun to see.

Prost!
