22 January 2022, Ilton, SWOONS 15th Members Open Day

After a long and difficult time for us all since they were able to have the 14th members open day back in January 2020, Geoff Bowyer and the South West 009 Society (SWOONS) team faced a big challenge in deciding to go ahead with their 15th open day and, with several late withdrawals, it was a brave decision to go ahead. However, around 100 of us were very pleased that they did, as it was a really excellent little day out, with the chance to rekindle friendships after 2 long years in some cases, see top quality modelling "in the flesh", enjoy one of Maria and Matt Gicquel’s famous pasties and strain the budget at the Society sales table. Well worth making the journey and renewing like-minded friendships, with some visitors travelling over 200 miles noted. It only remains for me to say how much I enjoyed the event and for those who were unable to join in the fun at the Merryfield Hall in the small village of Ilton in Somerset, I hope that you enjoy my photo report of the day.
