No need to apologise, as I was a member of the Gravesham club years ago and that's what prompted you to think I was still there.
Only a week to go, and really looking forward to it.

Guilty as charged.
I do hope the famed Gravesham bacon rolls will be available.

Well done to all at Gravesham for putting on a most enjoyable show.
Great to meet NRG, we had a nice long chat.
I've got some photos which I'll post later, when I've recovered.

Nice to see a show venue with good lighting, those figures are showing really well. Kudos to whoever painted the 1914 Gordon that is lovely work.

Hi Rob, the 1914 Gordon was painted by a friend of mine and fellow member of the Faversham club, I will pass on you message.
It's a favourite of mine too.

A special mention must mention go the the lovely display put on by the GMMS of the impressive work of Barry Bowen who sadly passed away earlier this year.

I attended from over the “water” (ie Essex) and wish to thank the organisers of this great little show. It was good to meet new faces and make new friends including MalcC of the Faversham Club who like me hails from over the water.
While we have clubs/model shows here in Essex as figure maker I’m always in a minority so it was great to see so many figures (and of such a great standard too!)
I also wish to thank those of Gravesham who put so much hard work into preparing the refreshment spread (including great cake!!) which, I can assure you, was most welcome.
see you next year.
