Looking forward to this show,armed with wallet and credit card we set off yesterday morning.
Both son and I with GT ,Spitfire 3 ,wife and friend set off to arrive at 10.00 am
By 12.00 some had already left and we were set to follow.
Very dissapointing.Spent £24.00 to get in, two tanks of petrol and only spent £4.00 on sidlight surround that wasn`t on my
purchasing list as long as your arm.Hardly any good stalls
No end I spoke to were disappointed.
Then on leaving some dypso had strapped a water hose pipe to the fence creating a fountain, that created a shower for all open tops to bathe in and a mud
bath to drive through !!

Hi Mike,
The reports on this show were poor last year. We decided not to trade after reading the flyer - space for less than 100 stands and pitch prices were
very expensive for all traders, even the jumble pitches were around 50 quid!
Glad we didn't bother....
Cheers,
Bill.
