RatSnatcher 0 Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 The Midland sounds good and I have always heard about people having the craic but biting what amounts to a 200lb bullet I think I would rather nip across the channel for a weeks camping Mart I will Pm you later mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SEAN3513 7 Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 how about ( with ian b's permission) THL approach the CLA and do a bulk buy ( discounted) for tickets?? (probably to late now for this year) if people put there names down by a certain date.....then order the tickets no one will be stuck with tickets they don't want. i'm sure theres enough of us on here that would like to go. and i'm also sure that if ....for example...someone ordered a couple of hundred tickets a decent didcount would be offered???? just a thought!! its the same at most shows now.........lowther last year was expensive!! cheers sean Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisJones 7,975 Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 The only decent fair left visiting was Lowther and that was starting to show signs of less hunting gear, more cheap tools, plastic toys and patio furniture. At the Midland they were caught selling Coca Cola at £2.70 a pint and even had the nerve to pour it out of 2litre bottles marked £1.69... they even had the nerve to try and stop people bringing in their own beer. The Sunday morning saw a half mile queue for the toilets because they didn't empty them, closing the gents and splitting the womens in half. This effectively left 10 stalls for a couple of thousand people. Smelled nice! It's a joke but the more people that are willing to pay £4 for a lamb pasty, and £30 for a plastic crossbow, the more they'll keep squeezing you for everything they can. Buyer beware. They're currently strangling the goose that laid the golden egg. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
