Wow, what a day, infinitely better than last years and for the first time I'll be going back for seconds tomorrow. Dropped by the UBeaut stand, picked up some EEE (great price!) and got told off for using too much Glow on my rag (I promise not to use too much next time!). Seemed as though there was bucket loads of amazing timber and Carroll's had a massive presence as well. And I'll vouch for the improvement in disabled parking, my Father appreciated the very short walk to the entrance.

I had a good day at the show today, with the parking situation being the only complaint. Whatever suburb the pavillion is in, the parking lot must be in another! It is a long, long walk. The shuttle bus was full on the three occasions I tried to board it, and it was quicker to walk than to wait. Next year, I'll revert to taking public transport, because the tram stop is quite adjacent. That said, the various stands seemed well-presented, and the demos well-worth attending. As usual, there was a lot to learn.

Just a few comments about the show which I went to yesterday,I have been to several over the years and find less and less intrest for me, maybe because i'm not into turning which there seems to be more of each year.
But thats fine as I guess thats what a lot of people want.
It is a good chance to see a lot of stuff in the one place that you may have to travel a lot otherwise.
The earlier shows had a guy who sadly passed away from cancer(can't remember his name exactly,but can remember him well ) Les may of been his name,he ran a couple of sessions which showed gadgets and whats new,also the "how to"of various power and hand tools as well as some hints on finishing,other demo's showed the how to of hand sharpening.
Thats what I would like to see more of.
The suttle bus made the long trip to the car park a lot better being loaded up with stuff.
Will most likely go again next time.
Cheers

Late starters due to being at the Protest March possibly.
Thanks for pics now if Sydney had seating like that we'd have it made picnics at the show next year maybe even a BBQ.

It looks very quiet.
Who is displaying the Windsor chairs? Is it a club or school? I'm sorry I couldn't get to the show this year, I would have liked to see the chairs... even though they're fashioned after Septic versions!.
I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.
