This event looks like it was very popular and the sort of thing that attracts all ages. This event was 1994. Is it a yearly event or has there been another show since? Any faces recognised?

I remember the chap with the cat on his shoulder. He was a likeable eccentric, who went every where with his cat. He occasionally visited my church, the Church of the Resurrection, Grovehill, but I think he usually went to one of the Baptist churches. He died some yeasrs ago, I think. I can’t remember his name.
In the third photo down, of the Sunnyside Rurual Training Centre stand, the chap on the right is Paul Moran, still a leading member of Chiltern Society Herts Conservation Volunteers (formerly Hemel Hempstead Conservation Volunteers).
I think there were three of these events. Possibly organised by The Hemel Hempstead Gazettw. I was in two clubs which put on displays. The Hemel Hempstead Movie Makers, who had a display upstairs, for the 1994 exhibit. The other was The Leverstock Green Players. These had both a display downstairs; as well as performing for approximately twenty minutes on stage. Pity and disgusting the Pavilion is no more. It served us well. Alan French.

Could it be Mike Dillon?
