My goodies from the 50+ show



Here's what I brought back from the show

Numerous brochures and leaflets
14 pens (!)
1 tiny bag within a bag
3 sweets (plus 1 I ate there)
1 little plastic case containing mint sweets
5 keyrings (1 from LV is also a torch)
4 chocolates
1 USB flash drive (? 3GB)
eye drops
toiletries
luggage tag
note pad
post it notes
3 bags made of material
2 hessian type bags from Churchill (that shed bits)
6 plastic carrier bags
fridge magnet (advertising home insurance)

Disappointing show as it was much smaller than previous years, with not so many exhibitors. I still walked round and round hoping to find a stall that I hadn't visited. Asked for pens, or just grabbed them, just as I asked for the bags.

Entered loads of competitions, so gave a seldom used email address to avoid spam in my usual folder.

Took my own lunch but left around 1.45 (having got there just after 9.30 when it opened), but had had a couple of sit downs to drink coffee or eat. Talked to lots of exhibitors.

Exhausted when I got home and went to bed for an hour, after drinking a much needed cup of tea.

Roll on next year...

Successful in pen collecting, myrtle!

I think it's the main reason I go.

Yes, they are Jem. I asked the capacity - the bloke thinks it's 3GB, but not confirmed. He said once you've deleted all our stuff from it - after reading it, of course.

I replied, of course! heh heh, I don't think so.

Also useful were at least three keyrings had the supermarket trolley token attached. I'm always losing mine. But one old boy standing beside me gave a tip - he said use the end of a tea spoon to push into the slot to release the trolley. Erm, can you see me at Sainsburys or Morrisons, doing that???
