I have it on good authority that 700 name stickers were attached to cards for entries.... so there are bound to be some pix eventually :D Unless the photogs were too busy eating buns, of course.... this seems to be a widepread weakness among members! :-X

Martin's right, Ian Instone has got some pix from the show on the AGS pages.
