30th August: Model Boat Show
Usually on a Saturday I’m filling in a rota slot at NCI Stone Point but I had committed to attending the Solent Radio Control Model Boat Club annual Charity Model Boat Show at the Milford-on-Sea Community Centre. Last year the footfall had been poor, but this year it attracted more interest from the public, especially during the morning.
I provided a movie show on the Community Hall screen, and a movie of Donk alternating with the NCI recruiting slideshow next to Donk (who is now rowing again!) I also had a slideshow of pond photos (driven by the Mac-Mini), and the North Sea herring drifter “Peggy”.
Rain in the afternoon provided a challenge packing up after the show, it is a good job the car park is just outside the back door!
