A big thank you to the traders, the boat clubs and the visitors who make this show such a resounding success. Thanks also to the Museum staff who support us brilliantly and to my colleagues in the Ellesmere Port Model Boat Club who work tirelessly to put the show on. The few months of work it takes to stage the event is worth it when we get all the nice comments and thanks from all you guys who exhibited your models, from the visitors and from the traders who all say "see you next year". In 2016 the show will be on the 5th. and 6th. March.

Thanks
I was looking at this and it looks like your thinking, " I'm sure there was something on top when I left home !!".

Or. " I wonder if there is a wood fire tonight !! "

Congratulations on a superb show, something for everyone, the time and effort taken to organise it shows, could i sugest an inprovement to the handout given with the ticket, a map of the different areas, not just the room or building names.
Not been for a couple of years but it did seem to be a lot bigger this year, well done to you all.

Mark

Forgive me Runcorn, I forgot to thank you for all your help on the setting up days, your help was invaluable, so thanks to those of you who turned up to help. Also thanks to Dave Wooley who alone organised the David E. Owen Competition, now a regular and welcome feature of the show.

canalpilot · « **Reply #93 on:** March 13, 2015, 03:01:30 pm »

Raffle winners!! I am looking for John (0*********) ticket numbers 401 to 405, Graham (0********) ticket numbers 281 to 285 and David (0*********) ticket numbers 231 to 235. I have tried 'phoning a couple of times without success so if you read this or anyone who could identify these 3 gentlemen please let me know.

IT IS NOT WISE TO POST TELEPHONE NUMBERS ON OPEN FORUM
KEN

TheLongBuild · « **Reply #94 on:** March 13, 2015, 03:30:52 pm »

I will pass on the message to David, By the way if you still can I would take the tel numbers off.

Can you Pm me your telephone number / email address so I can pass on to David.

Larry

canalpilot · « **Reply #95 on:** March 13, 2015, 04:03:38 pm »

I am not sure what pm means and unfortunately I do not know how to edit my message regarding removing the numbers. It was the only way to identify the winners, there were many John's, Graham's and David's at the show. The Museum have my telephone number.

Chylds Hall Model Shipyard had a great weekend at Ellesmere Port.

Everyone was very helpful and all the model boaters were great to talk to.

Thanks to everyone who bought items off our trade stand and we certainly hope to attend the event next year. I have put the dates in our diary.

Being stuck behind the stand meant I was not able to look round many of the club stands and missed the "on the water" display, but I will try and get more organised next year and see a bit more.

The museum is very interesting.

Thanks again to the organisers.
