I thought I would ask as it has been more popular than anyone envisaged how are you coping with this great influx of wonderful items and projects??  _________________ Les - Nolo Servile Capistrum

perhaps some people could opt out to make it easier.
I for one don't like the competitive part. I might have shown more if it wasn't for the thought of having the table judged. |

Don't worry, the judges will have all the time they need to make their decision.
It's going to be a mammoth task, but I know our judges are up to it.
I don't envy their job though.  _________________ http://www.freewebs.com/sandmansteamshack/index.htm

| It is a Mammoth task.... rather more Mammoth than I had expected! We'll try to get it done as quickly as we can though. I had naively thought that I would be able to more or less watch everything as it came in, but there's far more than I anticipated! |

Speaking for myself - it IS a lot of stuff to be looking at, but it's very much a labour of love, and Steve, Roly and myself seem to be very much in agreement about things.
However - this event is about the taking part, not about winning. ONE person will get a prize, which will be for the most significant contribution to the weekend, but there will be quite a few honorary mentions as well. _________________ Nid wy’n gofyn bywyd moethus,

Being able to participate has been a big enough prize for me, IMHO we are all winners. _________________ Non Impedite Raditioni Cogitationis |

I originally intended to see everything as it came in and just do a quick review at the end. That idea's gone out the window and I'm only seeing about 50% live. I'm glad the tables will be locked at the end so I can catch up. _________________ Regards

Tis amazing, I placed something on my table less than half an hour ago, since then 11 other members have put things on theirs.
I hope the sheds are locked at the end, BUT the chat shed should stay open for a while to come surely?
Im with John, the taking part has been the thrill, and I will sure trust the judges wisdom on their descision. |
