Pretty good in the comp, all entrants either recieved gold or silver 8) as clean sweep for the flatties!!!

Well done Gerry, on your 2 medals, well deserved ;)

Yet again Brian put togeather a very good table.

Well done Chap's keep it up ;D

One of the traders in the competition Room actually said the flats were in a class of their own ( not a pun as such ;D) but meaning they stood out painting wise from all the rest. A nice complement I thought.
