If you go make sure you wear really comfy shoes. Its a long way round.

Just got back with most of the bits we wanted. Saw the purple 101 and owner
on way down one isle with plans to stop and say hello on way back up the
other side, but by the time we got there he'd disappeared. Will have to
visit at the Peterborough Show in September.

He'd be chasing up a lead on some cheap swafega at a guess.. ;-)

Sugar and fairy liquid works a treat in an emergency too...

.... I should add... on the hands not in the tea.

At last - nice too.

Dave came over today - so a few more of those names have faces.

Sincere applegize if anyone thought I wasn't my usual happy cheery
self - a few transfer box issues were getting in the way of being
chilled. Still, there's next year to look forward to :)

You seemed quite relaxed when I met you, not grumpy at all. I must have
got there at the right time then. :)

Can't disagree with that! Always remember never leave the cork in
whilst boiling up, and always remember never leave the cork out when
not ;-)

I was quite restrained, only spent around £150 all day. Very tempted to
spend more but managed to control the urges.

One thing I got I'm very pleased with was a large Kelly Kettle, they are
amazing things, fantastic! Once you get the fire going they boil in no time
at all.
