Just got back from shifting table around at Matford, some exhibitors have already setup some impressive layouts
The Bowman track is assembled & i've still got to pack my engines.
John beware of bandits near 'Lannston'
If we've not met before come along & say hello, i'll be running stationaries on the Bowman Circle stand
Safe journeys to all & see you tomorrow _________________

I was home by 6-30, all the tables etc had been tidied away
Apparently there were just over 800 visitors to the show today
It was good to see everyone & i had a great day running the stationaries amongst the mayhem of derailing bowman locos,
(They're feisty little engines that require much taming with lead weights).
I didn't get many pics as the day just went too quickly & all the chatting to visitors has left me very hoarse _________________
