9/6: Video of Pin Meet in May

Here is a small video put together by the film crew that came to our pin meet in May. They were there to capture pin collecting in action for a piece they are putting together about the Olympics.

However they were kind enough to cut a few pieces together for us. It really shows a vibrant meeting and promotes UK pin collecting very will I think.

I've uploaded it to You Tube and embedded it here or you can click on this link to view it on You Tube.



Thank you to all those that contributed and don't expect royalties!

I've sat down and had lunch in there! My pin collection though is tiny compared to some of you folks.

HHHMMMMmmmm very interesting! A joyful time was had by all I see .... I noticed the 2012 London Shop pin on the video - I was there yesterday ....I have two spare copies of that pin if anyone needs it - it is a limited edition of only 2012 so I guess it is quite rare .... Keep Smiling!

'They're gonna put me in the movies, They're gonna make a big star out of me' ... isn't that how the Beatles song went ? Well, I'm on my way ... wish I wasn't though. Would have been better for Wookie to have had some more coverage. Never mind, Noel's on the job, isn't that right ?
