Guest Tracker Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 We missed the Malvern bash due to the weather and a garden in need of some tlc so we hope now to go to the Shepton show - anyone else going? We do quite enjoy these shows as the cost for the weekend is not unreasonable and we always talk to lots of people and invariably learn something new that we did not know. A show is about the only time our van ever stays on site for more than just overnight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howie Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Hi Richard. We'll be there on the Saturday and Sunday before moving on to Pickering. Always been our favourite venue with re. to motorhome shows over the years and usually the starting point of our last tour of the summer (apart from the odd weekend) where we have a week or two around Devon and Cornwall. Don't know where we will be parked up, but will keep an eye out for you and Dot. Not going there on your honeymoon are you Rich?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tracker Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 No Howie not our honeymoon as these usually follow the wedding not precede it - unless you know different! Honeymoon will be in Scotland and we are slumming it in a posh place so no van for a few days - oh dear - hope I don't get withdrawal symptoms - and no Howie that is not an invite for you to be rude! May see you at Shepton then - we'll be in our Autotrail Tracker WA06KOW - not too hard to find as there will only be a few vans there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howie Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Was'nt to sure when you were getting married Richard and thought you might be using this opportunity to both honeymoon and take in the Shepton show at the same time. Must say this stay at a 'posh place' in Scotland shows a generous and romantic side to your character that really does you credit, and the perfect start to a long and happy future for you and Dot. 'Withdrawal symtoms' Richard!. Obviously a ref. to missing your van, and entirely innappropriate for someone of your advanced years, and just a little disappointed you think I would stoop to any such vulgar innuendoes. Looking forward to the show and will keep my eye open for your van. Only a clock and chrome trims for the van on our list at the moment but you never know what will catch the eye. Only cloud on the horizon (no pun) is the weather. Looking at the long range forecast does,nt bode well, but rain or shine, we'll be there.

Guest Tracker Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 The show camping area opens at noon on Thursday and the cost of £30 for four nights (leave by noon Monday) is, in my view, reasonable for what has always been in the past quite a good show. If the weather holds dryish it should be OK underfoot - time will tell! Any one else coming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J9withdogs Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Unfortunately it clashes with the Bridgnorth Beer Festival. Such a hard life living in this town, ain't it? :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tracker Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 That at least confirms my suspicion that you, quite sensibly, prefer a belly full of beer to my company Janine - have a good weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

howie Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 With my little pick and shovel i'll be there, and the weather for the weekend does'nt look to bad either. Can't remember the last time we had bad weather at Shepton as most of you will agree, and another scorcher this time all the way through to Pickering. :-S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
