    I'm clearing the more domestic side of my collection so will be bringing some rarities to sell.

    Which way is the wind blowing across the site? Is there a spare pitch down wind so I don’t smoke anyone.
    This is not a big issue and I’ll fit in wherever I fit.
    Arriving tomorrow (Friday) if I get a following wind.

    It’s currently blowing towards the arches.

    I am not a stove guy but those look great and the right one for some reason more then the good looking left one.

    Hi folks

    I was supposed to be here for the duration however, family and last minute work commitments I’m going to be a day visitor this year. Looking forward to seeing you all Saturday. Have a great time.

    Regards Jeremy

    I forgot to mention sooner - I got a bunch of o-rings for my 111T’s pump and have some spare. If anybody wants a couple, wander past the icelandic tent…

    Didn't get chance to write anything yesterday, just wanted to thank everyone I met and spoke to yesterday for the warm welcome I received, on my brief trip to Newark yesterday. It was nice to put some faces to names and to meet other like minded people.
    The displays I saw were very impressive, not just quantity but quality and variety too, it was nice to see for real, some of the stoves I'd seen in the books and on here. I suspect they will get plenty of use over the weekend.
    I'm now home back in Cornwall and once I've down loaded the pictures from my camera, I'll put them up on here.
    Once again thank you for the welcome I received, hope to get there again next year.
    Tim

    Just home.
    Thank you all so very much for making a virtually stoveless first timer so very welcome.
    Special thanks to Ross who says it’s easy but it isn’t and I know it!
    Also to Jon for so much information and the silver soldering demonstration.
    I’ll post pictures but they don’t do justice to the whole show.

    If you know who I am and I didn’t find you to say goodbye - then good luck and safe home.
    Pat.

    From the Irish corner and the hairy Hobo.

    Pick and mix Kelly Hobo and Svea.

    I took along my Zebra pot in case anyone could use it and the first three people that I spoke to said I mustn’t sell it, it’s a wonderful pot. So I believed them and brought it home!

    Once again, my thanks,
    Pat.

    A few pictures from a Newark virgin what a great few days away. Cold for the first two days then scorchio during the day and bloody cold at night. 11EEAAC0-6C66-4A73-88CA-111BFEDA0118.jpeg A20FD560-5E4B-4A6B-8393-1EB8EBD89D84.jpeg 9B3496BD-87CC-435F-B9AC-84FCEA2FBEE9.jpeg 177A07F6-5DBE-404E-A719-19305F4B87CC.jpeg 890C0B62-C487-49A0-A63E-5106F01529E0.jpeg EBB6935A-F4B8-4A08-94FF-60C77CAEDF87.jpeg C973A92C-52FC-44CF-AD90-5C59C2728440.jpeg 6789AD8C-8DDA-4FFA-BC5F-3B9061AAC7ED.jpeg AE8A0895-5904-4599-9258-55042C930978.jpeg BA910EEA-4AC2-411E-80DC-A91DDA465607.jpeg
