Bristol LRP Kit Fair

Our stall

12 February 2012

Well that was a busy weekend! A last minute opportunity to appear at the Foreign Fields LRP Kit Fair down in Temple Meads station. Rachel and I were promoting Waltz on the Wye, and steampunk in general.

The hammerbeam roof of Brunel's original train shed at Temple Meads station

A seven o'clock start to setup on Saturday (as if!) was unpleasantly cold, even indoors, although Brunel (Huzzah!)'s hammerbeam roof is still lovely to look at. Lots of visitors during the day, a few of whom were steampunks, many more were interested in becoming one.

Some other interesting chats too - people interested in masonic light bulbs, motion-following eyeballs, laser cutting and building stargates.
