The new model show from the HaMeX organisers
The first smallspace was held on Star Date 01:07:2012
... and it seemed to go down very well... with everyone
Very many thanks to all exhibitors, dealers and visitors, and to our special guests, John Leeson, Mike Tucker - and Marvin
We were very fortunate the day remained largely dry and sunny - it could have been a lot worse!

As has been said, very many thanks to all who took part, but special thanks to Steve Fletcher (left) and Andy Spencer for organising the 'outside' displays (Sorry guys, these are the best pix I had of you - obviously you were moving about a lot!) |
