We welcomed several visitors to the showing of this special event run by Kate and Keith Brown of their audio visual presentations. In particular we were privileged to welcome Roger Thorpe of Castleton Garage and Les Lennon of William Lennon and Co. – boot makers. Both of whom were stars of the audio visual presentations called ‘Grease, gaskets and gears’ and ‘These Boots’, respectively shown during the presentation. We also welcomed other visitors locally and from Sheffield. There was an excellent turn out with the hall being all but full.
We were treated to a wide selection of AV’s, some of which have been aired before and a couple of new ones to the audience. As usual these all went down well and feedback from the audience was that it was probably the best AV showing yet. Some of theAV’s spoke for themselves images accompanied by music, other AV’s being narrated. The audience was clearly appreciative and from earshot it became clear that some members are tempted to have a go at making their own AV too.
The interval saw us treated to not only biscuits but also cakes as well. Things are definitely looking up; the society is well attended with prospective new members in the sidelines, a good range of presentations from visitors and members and we have also recently purchased a new projector and better display stands which means we can show off members’ images to their very best.
As a reminder, there is an informal evening arranged for Tuesday 17th September at the Anglers’ rest in Bamford. If anybody would like to go, can they please let David Allwood know before Monday 16th.
