Hi

We attended a great day at Focus on Photography at The NEC yesterday. To say it was crowded was an understatement Crying or Very sad

Little Jessica did great and spent the whole day cheerfully walking about without a whimper, smiling and charming everyone Very Happy

In the morning we entered a competition on the Photomart stand. It was not too taxing as all we had to do was to drop our business card into a box. It was novel for me as its the first business card I have had in twenty years of business and I only made them because you get constantly asked for them at these shows Laughing . The prize was a copy of expressdigital darkroom - worth £1000.

To win you had to be back at the stand for 5pm. I nearly forgot as I was not watching the time and to be honest at 5pm if you had asked me the time I was so busy looking at printers and presentation material for all I knew it could have been 1pm or 10pm.

But got back I did. I know Photomart as we purchase from them and I stood chatting to one of the sales managers as event photographer Keith Trainor went through his demo routine again.

They asked Jessica if she would pull the card - but what if I win I laughed. As it happens Jessica was tired by then so they asked a slightly older child.

The first card out was a very smart looking affair that opened out almost into a brochure, I turned to the sales manager Mark and said "Thats not mine, far too good, mine is homemade". The reply was that I should get a flashier one, could not argue with that, the owner of the flash one had just won a fantastic prize Crying or Very sad

But the winner had not bothered to come back so another card was drawn.. The winner's name was called out - Shona and Stewart Wall - Shocked was Me I can tell you.

Shona was looking at another stand and I had Jessica so the two of us went up to receive the prize from Keith and a very gorgeous young lady who had been the model for the day.

Shona's first news was hearing the chairman of Photomart ask one of his staff who had won and the response was Artona. She heard the chairman respond "Ah Artona, very nice chap" a comment worthy of being part of the prize Very Happy

I would like to thank PhotoMart, Expressdigital and Keith Trainor for the prize. The software is going to be a real asset to our business and I can't wait to get to grips with it. It is Photo printing control centre software (I just made that up but it says it all I hope). I photograph a number of events and it will really speed things up.

Oh and the business cards - no one else asked for them as they all had a pen to swipe the barcode on your badge Laughing Laughing

Nice one Stew, and congrats - lucky Jessica didn't draw the cards or it might have been red face day!!

That really put the icing on the cake I'm sure - or in your case, the chocolate! Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing
