Thanks for sharing. Nice to see some things which I will never be able to afford!

quote from Nigel............"I notice one very interesting piece amongst all those brilliant photos"..........and knowing your taste, might this be the Walsh 'Vesta' table lamp in 36/62? :)

Glad you said that jp........I was beginning to question your generosity. :ooh:  Sorry I couldn't be there, but a bit under the weather at the moment. :cry:  Glad you all had a good time, and hopefully see you next time! :thup:

Thanks ever so much for all these, Rosie - I always find taking pics gets in the way of being there and looking at the things in reality, rather than via a camera screen!

I'm very curious about a piece on this stand - has anybody any idea whose it is?

Hi Sue....I had all the time in the world,  so I got the best of both worlds, time to look and enjoy and time to take pics for those who couldn't attend or didn't have a camera, so I was very blessed there.
The only blot on the day was the fact that my camera started playing up towards the end and I couldn't get it out of Zoom mode....I was just so relieved when I got home to find that the pictures weren't lost!!. John has fixed it now,  so girls, marry an engineer, they are worth their weight in gold.
I really haven't had time to  put a caption to the pictures, and as you say, if I had tried to do it 'press photography' style, I wouldn't have had time to just stop and look and enjoy as well.  
I am sure that someone else who was there will know whos stand it was....it was in the great hall near the top end. Which piece were you specially interested in Sue?
I took these particularly because I know there are some of you who collect and like Mdina/ IOW glass. I tried to do a bit of everything, and when I have time,  I will try to caption some of them.....time?  where does it go??
Rosie.

That, I believe, was stand 20, belonging to Peter Elliot.
