  1. Well I went as a visitor thursday, was suprised to walk straight in (at 0845!) with no q's at the ticket booth. I am unsure if I like the new car park area, as in the old one was next to the stalls so easier to transport items to the car, living history was roughly the same in my eyes'

     

    It did look relaxed this year, but I did hear one vehicle owner say that when he approached to gate to go out for breakfast he was asked "where you going!" not "where are you going please?"

     

    was dismayed to see so much space in the fields where there was usually no space to photograph vehicles. Suprised at the lack of funfair for the kids etc, also no helicopter rides. I also saw no "tank rides " either.

     

    Traders, some noticable ones missing, some with reduced pitches also. More "tat" type ones though. (I did spend some money, some bargains to be had, I got a Martini-Henry ('303") for £350 so well chuffed.

     

    Would I go again if on? Unsure!

  2. Am going on the thursday for 1 day, wasnt going this year but changed my mind. It looks like it may have lost its appeal, but I will reserve judgement till I have been. I know there have been problems with the organisers, one I dont know if you are aware of, but the RUR in conjunction with Red Alliance should have been doing their battle on the thursday, but apparently the organisers "forgot" and allocated the time to Rolling Thunder (all this was told to me by a friend who was supporting RUR).

     

    On the subject of traders, surely the written agreement is binding in law? So therefore a trip to the small claims court seems the logical way forward (or the very least a word with a solicitor?)

     

    Like I said, I will reserve judgement until I have been.
