THE 59th BFCC PAGE 1
20TH MARCH 2010 AT THE EALING TOWN HALL


The regular lunchtime meet of 8mm Forum members this year had a boost from the new 'SmallFormat Forum' to which many have now joined.

A lengthy queue was evident before the 10am opening time


And as this is the last time we are holding a convention at the Ealing Town Hall we thought we should post a few images of the interior which has been a wonderful venue for so many years. A substantial rent increase has prevented the possibility of a future BFCC here.
