I see lots of problems was had getting to the show? but if it's not been said a big thanks to Adrian and the crew, the BFFS had a good day. lots of old and new friends to talk to and to see Gary Higgins there was a real joy.

Thanks Brian, and thanks to Adrian and the guys for doing the organising. In spite of the travel issues and the cloisters not being entirely sympathetic to wheelchairs, it was as usual a thoroughly enjoyable show, and thanks guys for making my return to the front line so welcoming (y)(y):).
Best wishes, Gary.
 
It appears that I have inadvertently upset Adrian Hopwood which was not my intention.
My beef was entirely with the steward, its not Adrian's fault that there were network blackspots on phone networks, it just added to the frustration we were having in getting to our destination. My referral to Adrian and Mark knowing was to shut up the Spanish Inquisition and nothing more, and I think you know to whom I'm referring.
Those that know me know what I think of this show. So I wouldn't slag it off or the organisation of it.
The fact that we decided to give up and go home was mine and my wife's decision, we didn't fancy driving around in circles getting nowhere.
By the time Adrian did manage to get hold of us, we were already on our way home and stuck in traffic.

... not for the first time, something has blown up in my face, and I'm absolutely fed up with it.

Haha! A feeling that I can fully relate to Malc! But seeing as you're quitting shows, maybe I can interest you in a forum moderating vacancy instead?! .................................. (only kidding :ROFLMAO::LOL::ROFLMAO:)

Steve Haha, funny that, I would love to help out, but I have to concentrate on producing articles for MM, however I have already emailed Kev, and offered to assist him in any small way I can.

As for quitting shows that kinda backfired already, as I've had emails asking me to reconsider.,plus I already said that I would judge and help Adrian with the photography.
MM business too. So I see all you guys there.:). Teach me to make hasty decisions.
Lucky I didn't get around to cancelling my hotel booking.:LOL:

Remember don't be a stranger, I want to see your work posted on the forum.

Speak ( or Type) in haste Malc repent in leisure...
See you in Folkestone though I might call you before hand..
 
Well Dennis and I had a great trip both ways and an even greater show. Well done to all concerned, it was nice to see some old friends, meet some new ones and sorry I missed others, but there's always next year. I only took 2 photo's and only made one purchase a flat which arrived earlier this week thanks for that Brian.

Both models were on the White Rose stand, the officer painted by Steve.

and this one painted by Graham - White Rose. The photo does not do this justice (plus it's behind glass) and when I saw this I thought this is painting of the highest order and the purest form. Exquisite work and my favourite of the day, outstanding brush work on this lovely flat. :notworthy:
cheers
