The Annual Show was held at Reading last Saturday, 27th April. A great show, busy all day. The competition tabes were full, with many excellent models on display. Thank you to all who organised and ran the show.

Below are photographs from the models in the competition at the show. ​Carlo Borello’s beautifully painted Knut 2 which won Best in Show. Please click on a picture to open it properly.

The Interbranch for 2023 took place on Saturday 2nd September at the usual venue, The Masonic Hall in Knowle. This was a chance to meet up with modelling friends and enjoy the models in the branch competition and the individual competition. Below are some preliminary photos from the show.

So another year has gone by and another annual show is over. Although quieter than last year the show was still a great success with some excellent models on the competition tables and good business being done by the traders. Thank you to all those that were involved in the organisation, particularly Julie and Paul and the catering staff. Also thank you Dave for your efforts on the Tombola. Here are some photos of the show. There will be a full report in the club magazine the Bulletin including the competition results. Those results will also be added to the website soon.

Over the weekend of 1st July to 3rd July the World Model Expo was held at the Konigshof Hotel in Veldhoven, near to Eindhoven in the Netherlands. The conference centre held the 70 traders, some model clubs and the competition hall. The competition had over 4000 entries from over 800 modellers. Modellers and traders came from all over the world, but not surprisingly European traders and modellers were the largest contingents. The quality of models in the competitions was astonishing. I will add photos to this blog in time. But here is a photo of the Best of Show winning model.
