Smaldon made it to Coventry, but had to return home. Dan Hogan had intended to
come, but a mountain of problems prevented him getting to Coventry.
I hope you
all enjoyed the event as much as I did, although I have to say I didn't sleep
too well that night, thoughts of 25 years ago buzzing around my head, something
echoed by Derrick and Roger.
I've
finally had to resign myself to never seeing the other set of pictures again,
lost at Kodak's Laboratory. It is a huge disappointment. If you have any
pictures from the day, that show people not included below, please let me
know.
Thank-you
to Gaynor for the two additions I've added.

Wilky was keen to be photographed with all
the ladies! Here we can see him with Petra, Cheryl, Wendy, Teresa and
Margaret. Clive, Dave and Mick try to get a look in.

Gaynor.
Finally
for now, thanks to everyone who helped out on the night, especially Jeannette,
Jackie and Cathy.
I've created a Poll

the poll' button to let me know what you thought of the event, and whether
you want more of the same.
Thank-you.
Note: If you 'voted' or 'vote' for a Disk copy or a set of
prints, please email me and let me know which you'd like, as I don't know who is
voting in the poll - it's anonymous.
