The Framers Forum

Yesterday I had a very enjoyable couple of hours at the Wessex Roadshow held at Newmarket Racecourse. A superb venue, steeped in history and tradition and not too far from the Suffolk/Essex border (Constable country) where I was born and grew up

It was a bit of a trek for me from the car park to hall two but well worth the effort. In spite of torrential rain there were a steady stream of visitors and all the exhibitors appeared busy. One of the reasons I went was to find out, first hand, how buying moulding chopped worked with different suppliers. This is a service I am definitely going to take advantage of in the near future.

My thanks to all the companies that exhibited and special thanks to John from Wessex, Steve G, Phil from A&T and others for their time and advice.

Good morning Pete,

Thank you for your kind comments. It was a well attended show. It was nice to meet you and your fellow framers during the course of the day.

Thanks to Wessex for organising the event. Good stuff!

Phil.

Thanks for the kind words Pete.

It was a "good show"...

...but a "good show" is only a "good show" when people support it - thankfully the good folk of East Anglia are very generous in their support and turned out in good numbers.

One small point - it wasn't a Wessex Pictures Show...

it was the "Art & Framing Roadshow" - which features other wholesalers - such as Larson-Juhl / Ashworth + Thompson / Preservation Equipment - as well as the FATG / Wizard / Crescent / Permajet to name a few.
