Define youngsters.... (As in, please please please please can I be included at the ripe old age of 34? Beginning to miss people calling me young man!)
In all seriousness, I was there with the wife and my 3 little ones (9, 7 & 5), and I was quite impressed with the reactions TBH. I've taken them to smaller gauge shows (coincidentally we were in the area at the time) and the difference in the fact that quite a few traders and exhibitors held conversations with all 3 of them. So much so that the 3 of them couldn't wait to tell nanny about the young man [from Pendlebury Fold] who got a battery engine and a short length of track down and was talking to the three of them and letting them drive it back and forth, and the bloke on the GVT layout who showed them how he was planting trees.
Only one point for me to note, the fact there was a second hall wasn't overly clear when we walked, could've done with a few signs to say this way etc?
All in all, we (all 5 of us) thought it was a good show, and great to be back out at a show again!
