Apologies for the delay doing this - been a bit busy the last couple of days! A massive than you to everyone who made the Blackpool Model Show such a great weekend, whilst I put in many. many hours of work to organise the event in advance, it wouldn't have happened without Stavros' help on the run up to & over the weekend, the Blackpool & Fleetwood clubs assistance, George Barnes, Pam, Elaine & David on the door, Jenny & Katya doing their best to scan tickets with faltering wifi, Ann for looking after the pool, John Sidebottom for bringing boats for kids to have a go, Susan & everyone else on the bring & buy, the staff of the hotel for being just superb (the fabric of the Norbreck, as we know, is not without its problems, but the staff were nothing short of brilliant), Chris Burr & the lads from Durham for providing the truck roadway plus of coarse all the clubs & exhibitors for sharing the fruits of their hard work with us all. Last but by no means least is a big thank you to all those who braved a breezy Blackpool to come & visit the show, hopefully you enjoyed it as much as we did.
I know there is another post to this effect, but just in case you haven't seen it, the 2018 Blackpool Model Show will be on the 20th - 21st October (the hotel is already booked) & it will be bigger with even more variety & more stuff that you probably won't have seen before.
Until next time.....
