On this Saturday at St Helens. Anyone going?

[Buff Orpington]

It largely depends on whether or not I blow the entire budget on buying someone's army on Thursday night, I may also have to work.

Good show usually but I'm financially grounded and have family stuff on, that and its Driffield the following weekend.

[vexillia]

I'll be there. If anyone wants me to bring an order get in touch.

[bangorstu]

I'll be there assuming Mother Nature permits...

[Peeler]

How was it?

[bangorstu]

For me it was OK. Went with a mate and, aside from the perennial problem with parking, we had a good time.

The committee seems to have had a bit of a think because I suspect there were fewer traders there meaning there was a lot more room. And the traders weren't 50% simply selling the same stuff (28mm plastics), there was a good variety.

Some, spent a lot of money, saw some friends from the Cheshire area, played a fun game of Cruel Seas (and won - which given the eggshell nature of the Japanese was amazing) and then home dodging the sudnay drivers of the roads...

[Buff Orpington]

We always find that the easiest solution to parking there is to use the Lea Green station car park. It says that it is for rail users only but unless Northern Rail have embraced modern technology they have no way of knowing.

Didn't get there, but I've been several times before, always a good day out.
