sikastag_1 689 Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Need to remember lads the dog shows there for the game fair, the game fair isnt there for the dog show, I always take a bob or 2 to gamefairs incase anything takes my fancy but I never build my hopes up on it because I know what they're like I was there for the terriers and lurchers and that part of the show was spot on, so I can't moan, your right denned the club that run the show is spot on well organised and they dont get asked to do all the game fairs in Scotland for no reason they do what their there to do well, all these complaints about prices, stalls etc have nothing to do with the dog show, Just want tae say I agree way youse about the prices and stalls etc but to be honest I knew what it would of been like before I went so I didn't build myself up, my mate got a load of falconry gear so there must of been a decent falconry stall but I never got the chance to see it, think everybody's voicing there opinions in the wrong place dont know if there's somewhere on the gamefair websites that everybody could email their complains to? So agreed their charging too much on the gate and as a gamefair it needs big improvements but nothing to do with the terrier club I think they did their bit and that can't be moaned about 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

B.P.R 2,798 Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) What date is the lowther show next year? I think I will be going to as many as I can. Focused on the big ones this year and missed the smaller ones. Edited to add that I thought the dog show was spot on.well ran, good people etc. Thats the only part of the show I enjoyed. But I went to a gamefair and not a dog show. The game fair was shite. Worst one I've ever been- honestly. It's not just £10 entry though is it? It's £20 for me and the missus, £45 for petrol and food while were there. If i knew there was going to be fuk all on offer I would have gave £65 to the greyhound rescue!! I have emailed the show organisers too with the same points. Enjoyed the day as a whole but that's solely down to the dog show.

B.P.R 2,798 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Didn't even see the falconry stall. Didn't see any stalks selling any gear apart from clothes, 1 pigeon shooting stall and 2 dog lead stalls. Rake- eh, if you've got the future show winning pup then why not be a rosette hunter? Or cutest dog haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have emailed the organisers Thats the key exactly whats needed we always make a point of giving feedback to the organisers I was stuck on the stand so did'nt see the whole show but with vat up to 20% and derv so expensive all the shows have a great deal of difficulty attracting traders and when the punters walk in and say I can get it cheaper on Ebay a two day show is ussually 4 or 5 days work for these guys.

nicola1804 114 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 I had a great time camping beer tent was good crack, the lurcher showing was good but the fair itself could have done with more stalls me thinks with better prices. If they put there prices down theyd sell more instead of trying to sell at high prices and selling nothing. Oh and Denned the next time my dog is racing yours can mine have a head start please? Its all fun Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its all fun That's what ruined it the gamefairs charging traders so much for their pitch that the traders need to make quite a bit before even making a profit so they can't give a bargain or 2 or a bit of flexibility now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
