As South West 009 Society Group Chairman Geoff Bowyer stated in the programme: "What better way to start the New Year as our Society enters its 51st year". He added: "Hopefully there will be enough room to fit everyone in...." Well it was a squash late morning with over 150 visitors not including children as well as all the participants making nearly 200 happy souls shoe-horned into the small village hall amongst the 8 layouts, 3 excellent trade stands, full Society sales table plus Matt & Maria Gicquel's mini-cafe (with table service from Continental Modeller Editor Andrew Burnham acting as waiter and chief washer-upper!). A good number of regular long distance travellers from up to 200 miles away spotted amongst the throng as well. Well organised but still informal and friendly. Group events like this are what it's all about!
