the showman 4,074 #11 Posted July 6, 2014 John Bedford (Mr SEVAC) came over to me this afternoon and said that our display was the best that he had seen at the Smallholders Show. !!!. Just goes to show that between us with the equipment we all have and exhibit, we get noticed and have a right laugh doing it. Isnt that the reason we do it. Big cheer for Paul & Wendy and all the other exhibitors for a great weekend. Well done everyone 3 nigel, vegikev and steve d reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
