I have been organising some more digital advertising, and this time I have video to attach to it, so a sneak preview is now here .... click on the link and go check out the video I took at the Exeter Dolls House Show.

A quick visit around our Exeter Dolls House Show in 2024.

As usual I have just been checking my page, before I head north this morning for the Leeds Show tomorrow and yet again, I am clearing off a lot of unnecessary posts on my site that aren't relevant.
So it occurs to me that many people see Facebook as a final means of itself, where I understand from guru's that its a means to an end, i.e. to draw people to your website or event. Now don't get me wrong, I am very grateful for all my followers and for those spreading the word (we certainly didn't have this 20 years ago) so a Big Thank you to the Miniature Community for the support - however you hear of us.

I have just double checked and updated my Traders Attending the Leeds show this coming weekend, sorry for the hiccup with Birdhouse Miniatures, we hope to see them next year. Meanwhile we have a couple of new traders attending. So exciting stuff coming up. I have also started to add the traders to my 2026 shows, but that will take a bit longer.

I have just been advised by Pudsey Civic Hall, that all the roadworks have now finished. We may get the odd lane closure, but no further diversions. It is looking good for next weekend !

We had another great day at the Lyndhurst Show last Sunday, despite the awful weather, but that didn't seem to deter some very keen miniaturists. So THANK YOU all for coming out.

I have had a request from one customer - she lost her hearing aid at the show; so if anyone has collected an extra item in their purchases, please get in touch me so we can reunite the two.

Unfortunately ABC Miniatures are unable to attend our Lyndhurst Dolls House Fair this coming Sunday 19 October 2025. We have therefore moved a few other traders around in the two rooms, so you may have to double check both rooms at the venue to find where I have put them. I have no fears they will be easily found, as I know that customers go everywhere to search for good mini's.

Massive Roadworks on the roundabout at Dawson's Corner, which could well make a difference getting to (and from) the Pudsey Civic Hall for our Leeds Show on Sunday 2 November 2025. Drivers be aware delays may well occur, although to be fair, Sunday's are usually a bit quieter on the roads.

I am just finalising my Lyndhurst Dolls House Show, for next weekend, but I now have go get and get more chocolate and sweeties for the trader packs! I have two new traders attending and several more returning after an absence, so there will be lots, and lots to look at. Mary Stokes has also told me she has be very busy making loads of new items for her stand, so it will be well worth checking her out at the show. Mary appears to only do this show, and she is a very talented person, I can't wait to see what she has done now.

It has taken me a little while, but I have recently realised that I am re-doing work for myself by making extra tickets to send to customers who book tickets on my website. They already get a confirmation from the system, and I have in the past then made another ticket and sent it out. I am about to save hours of work. Obviously I shall list everyone who buys them, and they can give me their names at the Fair Reception and hopefully this will be a win-win situation.

I have finally put my last two shows up in the Facebook Events for 2026, and have again gone thru my listings to remove all unwanted posts for things that are not miniature related. I may have missed a few but at least 95% of the facebook stream should now be relevant.

28/08/2025

I am just starting to list our 2026 dates here on Facebook, and across other digital platforms, so check out our "Events". Just a couple more to list, but they are all on our website at

The home page of MGM Fairs, organnisers of Dolls House and Miniatures Fairs in the UK.

As I am "between" shows at the moment, I am doing some housekeeping and also trying to catch up with the latest tech information - coming to grips with the new Answer or Generative Engine Optimization (AEO or GEO) for websites. Its another level or two above regular SEO, and is currently complex and expensive to implement, so back to the research and the drawing board.
