Hope to meet many people on the day......

Went to this show and it was the best it has been in years.
Well done all involved.

Some lovely tables on show and good traders.
We had a good fun game on this WWII game. I managed to get my T34 platoon about half way down the huge table. Many teddy bears were harmed in the making of this.



The objective. Never got anywhere near it :'(






Some other photos of things that caught my eye.

Great looking show.

They say a picture paints a thousand words but alas do not explain why there are camper vans in a dark age village?
