Post by: lifeboatpaul on December 24, 2009, 12:09:52 pm: HI Ive been to Pecorama twice its great and the seaside town of Beer where it is situated is beautiful :-)), but you must check if Pecorama is open on the days you want to visit as it does not open 7 days a week - if I remember rightly it was closed on Weds and Sat afternoons , but that was a while back .

Post by: HUNTER on June 07, 2010, 03:19:02 pm: Well done Alan and Wendy and all of your helpers. Without you we would not have a show that is always in our minds.
What a brilliant show this year, everything in its place and working, the sun shone all weekend, the ice creams kept going and the toilets were filled early!! Wendy sorted the problem straight away with her Girl Guide skills. If it wasn't for her installing the GG's Toilet Tents and loos there would have been a lot of watered bushes or even raising the lake by a foot.
Alan has a new four by four - did any one take a picture of it cause I left my camera at home. I knew I should have taken it eh Alan.
Well done and thank you from ALL of us.

Title: Re: Alfold Charity Model Boat Show 2010
Post by: wideawake on June 07, 2010, 08:32:24 pm: What an excellent show! Connie and I were at Beale park for the weekend for the Thammes Boat show. I was meeting a num,ber of people wrt the IWA Festival at BP in August (see other thread). We'd got that sorted on Saturday so decided to come down to Alfold on Sunday. So many models!! We had a great afternoon and Connie was very taken with scale sailing yachts of various types. I hadn't realised that teh Portsmouth team were going to be there so was able to have a useful meeting with them as they're coming to Beale Park for me in August.

We'll definitely have the show in the diary next year again, hopefully bringing the caravan for the w/e.

Congrtaulations to everyone involved in the organisation.

Cheers

Post by: SteamboatPhil on June 08, 2010, 11:47:30 am: What can I say, this was the first time I have attended this show, and I was amazed, a really great great weekend. Many congratulations to Alan, Wendy and all who made it very memorable. Many fine models ( I know this as I was coerced into being a judge, and that was very difficult) and lots of trade, some of who took a few shillings from me.
And indeed I broke into the understudy £20 note to purchase ale for young Alan, and John (modelpower) purchased ale for my goodself, and then------welll you get the idea a great BBQ eve.
If you have never been before, book it into your diary for next year, you will not be disappointed.
Same space for me next year please Alan.

This was the first time I had met Phil, what a gent he is and I am pleased that he noticed when he purchased the ale that it was for young Alan. So many others have not recognised this fact.

Post by: Guy Bagley on June 09, 2010, 10:54:17 am: i was showing the pictures from alfold to another club member ( showing him what he missed) and he has taken a shine to one of the models featured in the display,

i think it was dispalyed by a gentleman under the name ' boat shack'

does anyone have any details for this modeller i can pass on ,

is he a business/trader as i think i overheard he is producing hulls/ kits to order ???
