The early bird gets his worm ....... how full was the shopping basket? update will be good.

Yes, I'm going tomorrow, been a few years since I've attended, going on my own this time, thank god! Wont put my girlfriend through the slow trawl round the stalls and all my normal friends refused to go ( after the last time ). I too never seem to see the shows there! Hoping to pick up some Enfield bits. Enjoy it, whoever's going. Wellys are in the car!

Any updates anyone ? never made it today, but tomorrow is looking good.

Made it today, did the trade stands etc, (with no wellies), back on saturday to have a look at the vehicles, picked up a few things, a bergan, 2x jerry cans, and a S6 respirator.

If anyone is going saturday PM me.

Wish I could make it Saturday but preparing to go on holiday today, will be keeping an eye on the raffle for the Willys Jeep though ( fingers crossed ). I picked up a few bits Wednesday, No 32 sight tin, cheap, and a few Enfield bits, got a nice No4 trials pattern front hand guard. I missed buying a green IWS scope by an hour, the guy who bought it paid £250, you can imagine my dissapointment at that, met the guy who bought it too and got to handle the IWS, was in really good condition, some salt in the wound! Ahh, nevermind, maybe next time!
