Hmm I must have struck lucky and was away from the stand at the time.

Likewise Martin.
He (the Guilty Party) blamed it on the "Bubble and Squeak" that he was "forced" to have for breakfast. 
I just encountered the aftermath.

There was a report on tonight's local TV....BBC Midlands Today... about a noxious effluvium  experienced in Telford...............

much too far away for me to carry my model box in to the Centre, so none of my models appeared on the stand. It was notable that the Whiff SIG stand seemed much emptier than on previous occasions, but the Project Cancelled side was pretty well populated.

Yep, noticed that as well. We even moved some of the Project Cancelled models to What-if. The stand seemed quieter too.

Still, the show was enjoyable and overwhelming. There were some nice what-ifs on various stands, including an amazing Canberra armed with Bloodhound missiles. 

Glad to say I missed the NBC attack 

Now that the show's over, I'm wondering what to do next. I've spent the whole year working on one project, I'm looking forward to doing something different. Just not sure yet what it'll be.

Well you picked up BSP:5 Britain's Space Shuttle, so that might provide some interesting inspiration

Got home last night at about 2315, after a good clean run North. Lots of rain and spray, and the traffic was pretty horrendous at least until you are North of Preston then it always thins out.

SMW was it's usual self, meeting up with old friends, buying stuff (although this year I was a model of restraint. Mind you the Wooksta made up for me and several other people as well!).

So I have put the photos into four albums depending on their general category, some may have ended up in the wrong place, and of course Photobucket has messed about with the order of the shots within the albums.
Hope you enjoy.

So totally got the best in show reference wrong.
If the 'alternative BIS' did happen then condolences to all.

No you didn't Dave. 

You, Chris and I were all on the same wavelength here I think (a 'red and green' wavelength maybe...... ) and everyone else has got it wrong.

[kitbasher]

Yes WE were on the same wavelength, the OTHERS is who I was referring to, Kit!
