BooMster 11 Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 (edited) My partner and i have just got back from Chatsworth Game Fair. After walking round in the hope of finding a nice slip lead and two longs nets it become clear after an hour or so i was going home without both Maybe i did'nt search hard enuff, so i attempted to walk round again but lost faith quickly so decided to come home very un-happy... This is my second time to this fair, the last time bein 4years ago and to be honest there was alot more to it, i felt spoilt for chose 4years ago and i spent a fair bit of money too. Today was a different story all together, with only paying £30 entrance fee and leaving with nothing... Grrr!! If anyone does decent slip leads, not too big and bulky, made out of seat belt type material i'd be greatfull for a PM... I may have got a net suplier of here..

mark81 0 Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 is it that bad? I am going tomorrow with my wife and my parents. We are going for the gundogs and gun stalls?

I would check the website before you go as I'm sure the house is closed during the show????? But could be wrong? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I am sure they just close the woodland bit, but the house remains open (that used to be the case 15 years ago) I remember the fairs of old (15 to 20 years ago) and they were brilliant, everything was rather quite a bit cheaper than what it is now. But i still only go to one a year out of habit and this year is chatsworth, last year was belvoir and that wasn't too bad. I get Quinn (springer pup) on the 18th so that rules out Weston Park Quote Link to post Share on other sites
