Yet again, I have decided to come in fancy dress. Look out for the big hotdog.

You'll be missed Jean-Marc.

Simon, I'll bring the mustard!

Mark, your help is always very much appreciated. My brother-in-law Tim will be present as well so we should make good time to get the wind in the sails... or rather, to get the screen up!

Hi all,

Will again strive to make the effort.

A "major" fly in the ointment is that I've just been offered a 16mm Ampro Major Mk3 AND a Mk4; both mint and complete in every respect with all accessories including speakers etc. - and all for the price of collection!!! - I'll post some photos on the Forum once I've got them set up. [Big Grin]

They HAVE to be collected on Saturday, so will endeavour to make an appearance at Ealing if at all possible, [Frown]

but you know me.....the merest mention of the word Ampro, and I go weak at the knees!!! [Embarrassed]

With all the usual best regards to everyone, particularly John and Keith - you guys have my gratitude - even by proxy - if I can't make it in time.

Cheers,

--------------------

Well I spoke to Umit earlier this evening and he said whilst he may show up to buy some stuff (if he can make it at all) he won't be there as a dealer this time. So that's one down. I'm sure there'll be plenty of other regulars though!

In just 48 hours I will be boarding the plane to London. I can't wait! I have been needing a London fix for about a decade now... and I can't wait to look for super 8 films wherever I can!

I've warned Keith you're coming Brian. Make sure you come to see us as soon as you're there.

Mikael, Umit haven't had a table of their own for a number of years now. Other than that the dealer hall is going to be rather jam packed this time. Should be a corker for a modern film collecting event.

Have a great trip Brian! You will find great friendship and hospitality at Ealing and a superb film convention , just be sure to take plenty of pics and post them here. The day will go very fast, and there is so much to see, so try to be there when the doors open.

Yes, the bring and buy will still be there. Downstairs section of the restaurant somewhere this time fighting for space with the rest of the dealers.

Remember to use the back stairs to get up and down to the cinema. And drinkies in the projection area at lunchtime. I'd really like as many as possible to say 'hello' to the chaps from Italy, the chaps from Greece and Brian from New York. Who have I forgotten from overseas?

OH DEEP JOY!! [Big Grin]

I have managed to arrange to pick up the Ampros on Sunday - so I'll be at Ealing bright and early after all!!! [Big Grin]

Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Hi John,

Message received and understood!

BTW, will you require any speaker cable? I have a couple of reels if that helps, but no spare connectors.

Unfortunately I have got to dip out of this one as a family commitment has arisen.

I will hope to see a full report of the days proceedings on here from some of the members attending.

Would it be possible forum members attending the event to give a live coverage, especially for stealing price items... [Big Grin]

eg. Message topic "Hey folks 3x400" Once Upon Time for £ 10!?"

or post a picture of a crate containing: "Hey folks they are £ 2 ea for 400" digest"

[Razz]

cheers,

If we do that, Winbert, it'll make you turn green with envy.

Best kept quiet, I reckon! [Big Grin]

Just for you Winbert I will give you live picture updates, but I will not be taking much money so you will have to come over to pick up the films yourself [Big Grin]

Thanks David but we don't need any speaker cable... assuming Mr. Wilton hasn't lost it all of course.

See you all in the morning. Quite possibly only one more after this so anyone dithering, get on your bike!
