Stan has done a very comprehensive run through the show at its new venue which, as far as I am concerned, was a huge success with good entries, good exhibitor access, good sales area, good cafe and loads of free parking which meant many visitors through the door. The plant sales appeared to go very well with many stands nearly empty by the close of play. I feel that the huge effort put in by Show Secretary Angus Thompson to the show publicity, the show set up and organisation reaped the rewards this effort deserved so thank you Angus.
My own day went ok from the show plants point of view but sadly my digital camera decided to pack up right at the start (memory card problem, now sorted) so I had to rely on my rather old mobile phone which eventually ran out of storage space (yes it is that old) so there is not the usual number of pictures and some are not too good...sorry
In no particular order

David I have had a problem in the past when I used pictures from my mobile as their size is quite large 5-6mb as opposed to 3-4 from my digital camera and I suspect that is what is wrong, even using the SRGC downsizer on these mobile pics does not reduce them to below the 200 required, I did try to post the downsized images, which were around 300, using the in line image approach which has worked of late for my digital camera pictures. the 3-4mb ones, but the site would not accept these pictures either. I do wonder if the web site was busy at that time as Stan was posting his pictures and ? the site could not cope.
I will give it another go to see what happens

Graeme Butler from Rumbling Bridge must nearly have sold out on his trade stand and he also has to have been pleased with getting a PC from the Joint Rock for
