It is bliss now, it’s a week to early but we can cope. It was embarrassing standing in a cold muddy field! The health and safety is now much better as they use common sense rather than amateurs in hi viz and walkie talkies. It opens later to the public too which is great as you get chance to have a quick meeting on stands rather than fighting with customers to be first in at 6am. Food is better! It closes at a reasonable time so you don’t get the idiots that hang around until 7 pm asking questions about machine they will never buy! Our hauliers like it, our team like it, I like it! See you all there!

Can't be arsed , too far

Never been before, but although it's a marathon mission to get there*, I have pencilled in a visit this year...

Don't forget to grab your sarnies BEFORE you get there if possible. Regulars to the NEC can be recognised by the backpacks with lunch in 'em... I get Herself to drop me at Morrisons on the way to the station and grab a sandwich meal deal, or make some the night before . ;)






* all of 50 mins and 12 quid rtn by rail!!

Nope, too far to drive there and back in the day and can't get there at sensible time on the train so it makes it a two day trip. I'll stick to YAMS.
To far we leave home drive 2 1/2 hours to airport on the Monday and back home on the Thursday and the plane will be load with farmers some folk never happy!
