I'd like to thank everybody who turned up today for helping to make the NCCA Hands On Experience such a success.
Having to perform the duties of host, MC and also a system demonstrator was certainly a challenge to my organisational skills, so when things got a little hectic, if I didn't give individuals the attention they deserved, please forgive me.
We certainly had a lot to get through, but I think that everything we advertised was presented well with ample opportunity for all to try out the equipment.
Although I was able to arrange for some reasonable weather, I couldn't do the same for the traffic. Quite a few people were unable to make their way to Wolverhampton. Sadly, a lorry driver lost his life in an accident near J6 of the M6. The carnage was so bad that the motorway has been closed all day. As I write, it is still closed and not expected to be reopened until about 9.30 this evening.
In discussions with others today, we may be able to use premises close to the M1 in Leicestershire for a similar event next year. If there's enough interest, it is something I would certainly like to be involved with.
Thankyou again to all who attended.
Safe and happy cleaning
Ken
