Firstly can I thank those who have contacted me as to if we will be having another film fair. We did however investigate the plan to hold our event in Manchester which would have been really central especially for trains. A problem quickly arose in that the council want paying just to hold a event in the city so the overall cost would have been beyond everyone, this is not to say we have given up! What I would say at present is support our UK fairs including Ealing, Harpenden, Blackpool and Farnsworth and help to sustain them particularly if you live nearby. With the number of funerals of family and friends we attended last year the time to do anything is now.
We will report back with news when we have any and a huge thank you to everyone who came to our fairs and supported them. [Smile]

Ok thanks for that David. I am indeed working again this Saturday and Sunday, you are right about that David.

Otherwise, who knows? It would depend what I have on that weekend but I hope it all goes well for you all.

as David Guest has stated i wish people would read posts correctly. Andrew hasnt got a clue because he does not attend any of these events. Lee was commenting on his east lancashire fair. totally diferent from the farnworth film fair.anyone who has attended either of these would know that anyway. on the death of Dennis Parkinson farnworth is now run by his son Nigel Parkinson. Lees last event was superb by the way. Farnworth is definately this saturday the 6th. doors open 11am. a great time to be had by all who attend.

Hi Lee

I enjoyed your article in The Reel Image. That must be an awesome experience. I am an actor and enjoy being on set. But what you are doing must be much more rewarding.
