starvin marvin Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Looks like we should be going on Saturday. I'll need to write a shopping list first for our long winter trip. Is it just us or are other snowbirds getting ready to head south? and its only the middle of August! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minstrel Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 We'd love to but no 2 son and family are spending the night on friday on their way to Cornwall and won't be leaving her till after lunch on saturday. EverWe haven't been to any of the shows except Shepton Mallet in January this year and last 'cos something that can't be got out of always happens. When the NEC show is on we're on stage every night. HAve a good time, perhaps next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chatterdog Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 if the weather holds good will drive over for the Sunday, only want to have another look around what might be my next new 'toy' purchase (ha poss for the next 10 years) if i get it, can't decide on rear kitchen or mid kitchen layout.

Ranger Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Always have been but not going up there in the rain this year, even with heavy weather gear and wellies I don't think it will be very good. Will do the October one, weather should be fine by then???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROON Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 How come all you 'poppers-in' didn't turn up for the photo shoot? It would have been lovely to meet you all. Joy :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparts Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Photo shoot ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROON Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Hi Sparts, it was announced on the Malvern thread I think.... 5pm on Saturday outside Davenewell's tent on the showground. There was only myself, Janine, Dave, Carol and hubby, Derek Uzzell, Gazza and wife, Julie, who turned up. Clive was missing even though we had seen him the day before and none of those on the Itchy feet thread turned up either. Did you not know? Did you go? What did you think of it?

Don Madge Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 Hi Joy, This is the first I've heard of a "photo shoot" at Malvern. I must pay more attention in future. :$ :$ I would have been there if I'd known. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparts Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Hi roon yes we did go, as planned was on motorcaravaners section, groups well missed the one group i wanted to see again so my reletives could see the main saturday groups in seven hall, i wanted to see the smokey mountain boys, other than that bit dissapointed in the entertainment side, weather well what can i say quack quack, otherwise lots to see and i got my wheels injected at last with gunk so hopefully no punctures. Lets hope the pickering show has better weather noooo more tractors this year please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROON Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 would have been nice to meet you Don. Sparts, I agree. They were the best entertainment on the Saturday and it was the hall with the most atmosphere too. You weren't the couple we sat next to were you (we were the ones moaning about Raymond Froggatt??) Really disappointed with Raymond Froggatt, we walked out and as for the Dolly Parton lookalike ...... give up ..... Bett lynch eat your heart out - but you can sing better!!!! The Lonnie Donnegan group (forgotten their names) were good if you were a fan of lonnie donnegan and apparently the Johnny Cash group were good too but we didn't see them.

fred grant Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 no tracter needed for fred an alice. us just skiffled out on monday full of the joys of spring (well august anyway). us enjoyed it immensley, but saw no photo shoot, only lots of noisy cuwboys. how is us supposed to find dave newells tent in a boggy field of four thousand motorhomes my biddies. perhaps next yer sum latitudes and longitudes or a sat nav finder maybe a good plan. goodtimefred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chatterdog Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 We got there on the Sunday and said Hi to Dave, checked the van we are interested in out then headed home again after having a bit of a splash round some stalls. Must say the straw put down to walk on gave a slightly western feel not quite sawdust but hey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainbow-Chasers Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 We went up in one of ours, just to have a look at the motorhomes really! We had some bargains there though. The weather held out saturday. Funny thing was, i forgot to take the extension for the tv aerial....no worries i thought to myself! Pick one up at the show......you would never beleive it but not one person had one!!! But it was a good day out, one stall holder lost out on my £500 spend when she refused to knock £2 off the bill! So went to another stall! lol! Well, i thought at a show you normally can do a deal, and when you are getting that much stuff - but never mind!
