I went to the show on Friday. Big thanks to Neil from U-beaut for the free ticket I won. I spent what I saved on 6 bottles of Hard Shellac for an upcoming project.
Thanks to Wendy also for coming out to give me my free ticket. It was a pleasure meeting you and a new experience to talk about wood to a woman and for her eyes not to roll backwards like my wife does on many occasions. Even if you do work with pine
I enjoyed our brief chat.
The only thing I purchased as the show was the Hard Shellac. Neil had some fantastic pricing and was good to see, compared to some other show stall holders whose pricing seemed to be not that cheap. I'm starting to see less discounted pricing at these shows and more price gouging by some of the major players.
Thanks,
Shane.

Was it my imagination or were attendance numbers down on past years for Saturday?
It seemed to me that it was a lot more comfortable walking around there this year than in other years on the Saturday. Certainly, it was pretty easy getting a hot dog there. The hot dog stand looked pretty devoid of customers when I was looking at it.
I think that the show missed out having a few non-promotional presentations than in previous years. ie I did not see the equivalent of a Richard Vaughan there.

Richard is not there because his workshop went under in the January Floods just like mine. He is one street over from me in Sumner Park and everything went under water during those horrible days.
