The Leeds, York & North Yorkshire chamber of commerce dinner at the National Railway Museum, York last night. So many train spotters!

1 of a series of videos of Benjamin Roberts collections at the British Bridal Exhibition, Harrogate. This is their Blue collection, filmed on a Monday.

Schoolchildren just couldn't help themselves hugging the Redrow safety bear.

Stangely drawn to the Qulaity Street sweets on Amanda Wyatt's stand at BBEH; this week is the 75th anniversary of Quality Street and in Halifax they're giving away free sweeties! But at BBEH there's no free wedding dresses being given away (sorry ladies; and the odd bloke).

Third in a line of the Shipley family whose weddings I have photographed; here are the 3 of them together last Saturday.

Videoing and photographing the Benjamin Roberts autumn / winter 2011 collections at the Cairn hotel, Harrogate. Another black wedding dress.

The British Bridal Exhibition, Harrogate at the Harrogate International Centre. On show for the trade; hundreds of wedding dresses including this one with a very heavy, very big, train. Also blow up dogs!

Quite an interesting conversation tonight with Brian Blessed, actor. He was speaking at the West Yorkshire Society of Chartered Accountants dinner at the Queens hotel. He acted in Z Cars and played Fancy Smith; the series was filmed at Maghull Police station, yards from my Grandma's house, and I can remember the commotion it caused when they were filming. There again, I was VERY young...!
