Croydon really worked out well in the end. There was hardly a flood of
general public but I was happy to see a steady stream of visitors and I
think all of them went away pleased by the experience. Thanks to everyone
who contibuted to the day.

The reporter from the local newspaper sadly did not have a photographer in
tow... maybe he got lost or something. Has anyone got any digital pictures
of the day they can send to me? It'll be great publicity for the next
Croydon event if there is a big article in this week's issue.

I hope to be rushing off to Lego World convention in The Netherlands
straight after the morning session at RLD. Is anyone else is considering
making the journey? It's a simply massive con - I'm not sure I can miss it.

Craig.

Hello,
I just want to thank Craig for organising such a great fest. It was my first
time displaying properly and I couldn't have done it without the help of the
Stevens clan. The public were actually really nice, and I had no worries at
all having some of my more delicate items on display. Thanks to Steve, who
helped me get sorted, and to the train heads for dealing with the track
while I was busy. The central display was excellent considering the lack of
forward planning, and once again the usual suspects brought some lovely bits
(as did William - the monorail king). Who did the pub with the complicated
roof? Was it Simon? Lovely, that was...
I was having a fag when the Lego rep showed, so missed most of that (any
news?). I'm also curious to see if the journalist will do a report, did she
take any pictures?
The only thing I regret doing is inviting all my non AFOL friends, who only
managed to huddle fearfully while we did our thing. They simply don't get
it, and I pity them.
See you all saturday.
Pete
