Hi, Is there a 9.5 meeting this Saturday 4th May in Pimlico?
Never been before but I will be in the area, (St. John Islip Street) which I believe is near by.

You do realise you need a "Passport To Pimlico"

Myself I was never a collector of 9.5mm. I started in super 8 then 16mm I recently bought a couple of standard 8mm films, you never know I could be a 9.5er too.

Hi Mark,

This saturday is the annual Group 9.5 Spring Fair from 10.30am - 3.00pm. No film shows im afraid but lots of 9.5mm, super 8 and 16mm on sale, and plenty of friendly chat. Only £2 entrance. See you there.

That's great, i'll see you there, but not sure of the address, is it in St Gabriels Church?

Hi Mark,

Yes it is, off Lupus street.

Hi, Quite a good turn out this year. Missed meeting up with Ken Valentine but he will be at Harpenden. The "usual suspects" were there and quite a few bargains on offer in all gauges. Some projectors again in all gauges at more sensible prices than E bay!! It was nice to meet up with fellow fanatics!! Ken Finch. [Smile]

As a member who has sadly only paid three visits since I joined the 9.5 Group due to various problems, I would have loved to attend the sale. Possibly just as well for the sake of my wallet, as I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to resist a good bargain. Perhaps I should move into the area!

Greetings from Wales.
I made my annual visit by coach from Cardiff, a journey time of 3 hours, followed by a ten minute walk to Pimlico. Well worth the effort - I bought 4 good prints of Pathescope's News Reviews (1949, 50,51 and 53) so went home happy and a 60ft "Visit to Madeira' (1933).
Decided to start a collection of 9.5 factual and docs. If anyone has prints to sell/donate please let me know. Regards to all 9.5ers! [Smile]
