I can gurantee one person who won't be bringing labels - me!  I don't wear or carry them and I refuse to be labelled.  That goes for my models too.

So if somebody points to one of your models and asks what it is, you refuse to tell them?

But that's not a label.  If someone says "What's that?" it's a question which I'm happy to answer.

So how do you answer it when you're not there, then?  ;)

I'd have to write it down.....just to get it right.....or use a crib card that was prepared by the owner of a model.....that way the poor sap behind the table can answer the Q posed by the model admirer....which can only be a good thing.......

Wouldn't work for me: I've got a head like a maliciously selective sieve. Martin actually told me about one of his (and yes it was interesting!) and I still forgot half of it when somebody asked me about it an hour later...    :banghead: :rolleyes:

We saw and heard your version of that at Milton Keynes  ;D It takes a lot for me and Martin to have to walk away  :thumbsup: :rolleyes:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
