I second that Simon. David contacted to let me know he was not far off full and to let anyone else know who wanted a table so looks like a bumper event.

Young David phoned last night and updated all is going to plan for the Film Fair and he was in fact on his way over to the Cliffs for a meeting to finalise everything for the big day. Behind the scenes this is the sort of effort it takes to put on a large event and I know David has also advertised it widely.
For anyone staying over on the Saturday night The Croydon Hotel next to the Cliffs only has a small number of rooms left now for fellow film collectors so if you intend to book please do so quickly. £25 per person B&B based of two sharing. The hotel has also indicated a super 8 film presentation will be welcomed for people booked in on Saturday evening. More on this later. Telephone: 01253 352497 12 Empress Drive, Blackpool FY2 9SE

Had a visit to David and all arrangements for the North West Film Fair at Blackpool are going to plan. He showed me the floor plan which looks neat and the auction will be a good one by all accounts. There will be Super 8mm films shown as well as a 16mm programme. A good cross section of dealers/traders are now booked and I think just about all tables are gone but he did say he would try his best to fit in anyone wanting a table even yet.
Having done his very best for us along with his team making for what I am sure will be a great event the rest is up to the people coming through the door and supporting it. Entry cost is at a pocket money price of £3.50 and a great day’s entertainment for our pleasure so its time to get those feet walking and come support the event which after all is blowing the trumpet for the joys of film!
