Magnificent seven (+2!) attend Poole Vikings Show

 

Hugh & Steve arrived first and set up the stand, closely followed by Robin, The Nige and Peter. Simon and Mark arrived together to complete the display. Elsewhere in the massive sports hall, Big Mick & Geoff put on a display for the Churchill SIG. 

The stand attracted a lot of interest, with both pictures and videos being taken, as well as a lot of chatter. Nigel, Hugh and Steve (along with Mick!) did rather well on the competition tables.

The show seemed a bit quieter than in previous years. Fortunately, the weather was kind enough that the ban on eating & drinking in the hall was not too onerous!
