Come and say hello if you see me, I'll be wearing a bright orange tee shirt so I should be easy to find, It's a pretty good show, I usually find something that makes it worthwhile making the trip.

Just got back from the fair, I briefly met Fixer (Reg) and then it was eyes down for the hunt. A few of the regular dealers had gone to the NEC so there was not a great deal of stuff that I didn't already have but I found a few nice pieces on the very last stall, Never saw Tim there, Did you goo Tim.
I got a m&b Y11 Packard with a plated handbrake/spare tyre carrier and the rest unplated, a no14a Daimler ambulance in mint condition and a Morestone Noddy car complete with Noddy figure, £20 for the three and just before I left I picked up two Hong Kong copies of the 44a Rolls Royce and the 32a Jaguar for £5 the pair, There was a lot of nice Dinkys and Corgis if you like that kind of stuff.
For Alan, these pics were taken with an old fujifilm 3.2 mp camera, cropped and resized to fit the page. this camera can be bought secondhand off of ebay for £20 or less.
