Annual Exhibition

With over 20 layouts on display we had a busy but enjoyable time at our 2007 show which closed at 5pm on Sunday 7th October.

 

The first photograph shows Pete Waterman performing the opening ceremony with Exhibition Manager Andy Cooper wondering where Kylie has got to.

 

We are already planning the next show which opens at 5pm on Friday 3rd October 2008.
