Hi Jim

Wow! I wish I could have been there. The standard of the entries is superb - and the video give a real sense of the sheer scale of the show!

Thanks for preparing such a detailed show report - there's stuff to browse through for hours in there!

All the best

Hi Jim!

Fantastic report! Thanks for sharing your experience of the show.

I can only imagine the time you've spent sorting out the pictures (+ 1 vidéo ) and uploading them to the gallery. I suppose this must be some kind of record for the KitMaker Network!

Hi Jean-Luc,
Well at least I didn't have to build them too! But yeah it took about 3 hours to format and upload all the photos (thanks mostly to the batch feature on Photoshop) then yesterday I started writing the feature around 12pm, spent maybe an hour or 2 with the family intermixed in the day and finished it around 1am. Is that a record? Certainly for me it was.

Cheers,
Jim
