So this was my third year at the expo and I was not disappointed.

Is there a recession going on? To be honest, I never felt it at the venue, The NEC in Birmingham. With all the kit you could ever imagin to have in your possession in display, one was tempted to just break the bank and go on a spending spree.

I held back though and just picked a few accessories for my current beginners kit.

Back to Focus, as I write this, it still has two days before it is over. So, if you can, please go and check it out. You won’t be disappointed.

I didn’t see everything I wanted to see…….there is too much to see anyway. Tip…..make a list of the stands you would like to see and stick to it. Otherwise, you will have an excitement migrane.

Focus was and is an experience that will make me go back year after year. Worth every penny of the £6 entry price and the 2 hour journey.
