A quick reminder to anyone who might like to attend that we have our next pin meet on Saturday 19th May. We're back at the Railway Tavern in Stratford thanks to the very generous support of the owners. We start at 2.30pm and have a good mix of collectors there.
If you've followed the website, blog and forum and have yet to tried some pin trading, then why not come along and see what you think.
As we approach the Games, media interest in pin collecting and trading is increasing and there's a good chance that there will be a small film crew there making a feature on various aspects of the Olympics. There should also be a few members of the press from London and national titles.
No-one is obliged to be filmed or contribute in anyway, so just participate as much as you are comfortable.
I'm pleased to say that Honav plan to be there and with any luck we may have a sponsor dropping by.
I'm looking forward to seeing lots of you there on Saturday and hopefully we will all have a good days trading.

Have a great time everyone! Sadly I cannot be there - see if you can grab any more news on rare pins ...
A thought .... maybe Honav will be able to confirm how many more Countdown Pins there will be ???
A stonking event once again! Thanks Paul for the hard work, and cheers to all at The Railway. Wouldn't it be great if Honav could make a few commemorative "Railway Tavern" pins for sale behind the bar?!
