We must be making a half decent impression of ourselves on these jolly jaunts ;D ;D ;D 

Must be a positive thing for the society 8)

2 tables weren't enough so say 4?   We certainly have the goods to fill them.

Punching this one up again, will be booking hotel in the next few weeks.
 
The hotel is at the same venue as the show, price is 78 euros a night with breakfast for a twin room.There's a evening meal lade on the by the Scale Model Factory for Saturday and Sunday at extra cost. the plan is to go out on Saturday and return Monday, but nothing wrong if you need to go back on the Sunday your only a few hours from the port  ;)
 
So you thinking of going? it is a good weekend :D

Having done this show for a couple of years now and it is a good weekend away at a friendly show.  Coupled that with good food and beer.  What more do you need for a model show!

See you there.

  In cooperation with the Dutch NVM modeling society there's an additional event : Youth and Modeling which will also bring lots of interesting stuff for the “older youth”.
 
Looks like a big weekend :o

Yep almost there for this pilgrimage to Holland.

Creates are re-stocked and ready to go, just need to sort the last few pieces of paperwork out.

I have new stock of Rafas flats for those who missed the Hussar at Euro.

See you all there.

Well another great weekend, plenty of laughs and sorting the world out, new friends made and old ones caught up with, 2D did very poorly only a handful sold but we'll be there again next year for the fun :D
 
Big thanks to Chris, Nick, Rob and Ken or was it Frank? no I know it was Colin!! for helping out on the tables and the Scale Model Factory guys for putting on another great show!!!

Post by: Nicholas Ball on October 15, 2013, 10:30:17 AM

yes, a great weekend. seeing everyone with 4 eye's in the early hours of sunday, and then exploring the wardrobe floor whilst trying to remove one's boots were a great cause of amusement to other's :o :-[ :-[

I don't normally complain about the Judging, or the Judges, but quite frankly that guy from the UK in the green sweatshirt was whey out of his comfort zone, in fact I would go as far as to say he was as good at that as he was with Navigating abroad. :o
 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Nice pictures - thanks for sharing, I will add them to the Show section.


Is it just me or is Brian beginning to have a distinctly piratical air about him?
