PaulT Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Attended the France Show at Earls Court on Saturday (good job I looked at the tickets before getting there as I was off to Olympia). It did not seem that there were not as many exhibitors as the previous year, nor as many visitors. Last year additional seating was being placed in the seminar rooms and people were still being sent away due to over demand. This year, in the three that I attended there were empty seats. I presume that this is a sign of the times that we are in. Of the three seminars that I attended, two were by Philip Freirs (spelling?) who started France magazine. A very entertaining speaker whose talks highlighted the joys of travelling down France by the back roads and the other of life in Gascony. His first talk made us decide that instead of the early shuttle on a Friday morning and bomb down to 31 our July trip would see us going over Thursday evening, stop overnight near Vierzon and then meander down back roads).The other seminar concerned the first six months in France but also included some of the buying process. I must admit that some of the speakers experiences were not ours. With both speakers it was heartening to hear of the experience of a better way of life, especially the attitude of youths being more friendly and positive. Hopefully, the show will still happen next year because, in spite of this, it does provide an enjoyable day out and, for me, an opportunity to add to the bookshelves. Things will get better.
