I've seen a very short video this morning of Doubleboost John with his video camera sun was shinning. I had no idea you guys had a long weekend :thumbup: my Aunt told me. |
| John Rudd:
Well some of us met at 12 as agreed..... :wave: Good to meet John Doubleboost at last....., Mick Toon and Bob krv3000, Bluechip and Stilldrillin.....and one or two others I didn't quite catch the names of..... As to the show itself, I was dis-appointed by the distinct lack of traders again....College Engineering, Noggin End and Proops were missing, probably other regulars that I can't think of.... The Chester stand lacked a few of their offerings only to be be outshone by Warco..... Finally made my mind up and ordered the GH550 from Warco after haggling (thanks to 'ER indoors intervening..) for some freebies... Would I go again next year? Not sure probably not....I think internet shopping is the main reason why there's a reduction in trade support.... Anyone else want to share their thoughts of the experience? |

Exhibition organisers are now charging an arm and a leg for stalls. Add that to the fact that small traders with limited staff have to close their conventional outlet during an exhibition, and the result is many don't find attending commercially viable. |
| Deko:
John Rudd, I was one of the others that you didn't catch the name of. Dave (stilldrilling) and Dave (bluechip) and myself had been chatting for quite a while before you and the others arrived. Cheers Dek. :med: |
| S. Heslop:
Just got back. Unfortunately arrived an hour later after suffering roadworks all the way down and then getting lost in the town center for a while, so I didn't get to find anyone. |
