BosKonay Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Had a great, if hectic, visit today with my two little lads. Was disappointed to miss Saturday, but made up for it today. The lads loved the Lego, and really enjoyed the chat from the operators. The layouts, trade and general buzz was great! Manfully resisted the gorgeous looking selection of irish bits on Chris/Daves stand! Quote
Northman Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Dammit,I seem to have missed a great show:(( Quote
201bhoy Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 just back from the show and it was great to meet a few of the lads - hiddenagenda, anto, wrenneire, ttc, warbonnet, westy, paul r , niall (the bug lug!....great to hear all is well in your house niall.) and glenderg. enniscorthyman was seen in running after his daughter on several occasions - (its easy known who is the boss in that house!) paddy murphys 071's were the star of the show..breathtaking models -well done sir! special mention to richie...his models were increadable, and a big thanks for the sperry container. finally got my class 80 from anto and she was well worth the wait. got 4 breakvans from gareth which were a work of art. and finally to westy....i held the sulzer in my hands...excellent work desand i cant wait to get my 3. heres a pic to tease you all...[ATTACH=CONFIG]3245[/ATTACH] I'll second that about Richie! Unfortunately I didn't get to the show today, but on way from Galway to Belfast I collected my containers off him. Just opened them there now... STUNNING! No 071s for me yet unfortunately also, Anto, was that you I saw walking off the enterprise that came into Connolly about half 3? Quote
Garfield Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Had a great time at the show yesterday... got to see some fabulous modelling (the 7mm scale NCC layout was the cream of the crop), got to say hello to Weshty and see the excellent work he's done on the Sulzer, and met Glenderg and saw the drawings for a little project he's working on for me. It was great to see such a good turnout to support the show. Quote

enniscorthyman Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 It was a great weekend for me as with getting my hands on 071s,plus Dublin and Wexford shows,it's just been a blast.I just met Anthony and Seamus,and Glenderg Which was lucky as I spent most of my time running after My three year old. Had a quick chat with Des, and 101 looks great and can't wait to start on the kit. Quote

201bhoy Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 @ 201boy no wasn't me I drove down That's good then. I saw this 6'3 guy who looked like you, but I didn't want to say hello in case it wasn't you! Would've been a bit awkward. Quote

108 Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 I'm back from the show. I managed to pick up 112 and also a Dutch van to complete a Cravens set. Plenty of great modelling on show. I particularly enjoyed the NCC/GNRI O Gauge layout and the scratch built buses. Missed SSM though. Great weekend. Quote

Some great layouts on show and I got a demo of the 071 from the man himself as well as a chat, what a gent Pm is! Missed Des and his Sulzer, but that's what you get for being late in the door....

josefstadt Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Got to the exhibition on the Monday. Great show. Picked up a MM 112 - great looking model - maybe Westy will produce a kit for adding in the missing cables etc? Also got one of Lukas' excellent calendars - well done that man!!! Quote
