I wanted to be the first to congratulate Juliet, Phil and the team on an amazing convention! It was brilliant being part of it and we loved speaking. Being involved makes it just how clear how much work is put in and it paid of in bucketloads. You could teach the MPA a thing or two about organising a bash like that! We would love to be involved next year (if you'll have us!) Bev and Barrie  |

Bev, you put my thoughts in plain English: Juliet, Phil and & Comp did a amazing job! .
Is for the first time to attend the Convention, and despite the fact that I had to do some travelling to get in there, I had the time of my life. I had the chance to meet most of the people I chat with in here, and I can swear with the hand on my heart that in reality, they are even much nicer than they are on the forum.
The convention had everything, from interesting lectures given by the best photographers alive, and plenty of pints of beer. Oh, and the trade show made me being afraid to to go back in Cyprus and to meet, face to face, with my bank branch manager. See you all again, next year...
SWPP, a big Thank You!

I agree, I only made half of the Saturday and the Sunday awards but had a great time and definitely plan to attend the whole convention next year. Many thanks Juliet and Phil  |

Hi all
Just arrived back a couple of hours as the advanced party (of one).
Three vans still to come in with the Convention gear – though one has broken down so is being hauled back…
Very grateful to all those who attended – another record year!
Will post more including the Convention images tomorrow

I was only able to make one day's full seminar this year but had a brilliant time at the convention, so a big well done from me as well :-)
I'm already looking forwards to next years!
