Adventure Overland show

Is anyone going to the show?
Or has anyone been on a previous year?
Any good?
Any bargains or discounts to be had?
It's on the 26-27th September and there's camping.

Where is it, can't go Saturday as it's Great Yorkshire Air Show at the former RAF Church Fenton

It's at Stratford racecourse.
I went last year as I wanted to meet a roof tent supplier. It was OK, lots of stands and lots of duplicated products and lots of Land Rovers.
It's quite interesting as you get to see many of the products in the flesh.
I'm not sure that there's too many product at discounted prices, everything I looked at was at list or at their DFS style constant discount price.
I might go down an show off the barbecue & see if there's any interest in it. I was down on the Saturday last year and got to see everything in a couple of hours. I think there's entertainment and activities too, but I wasn't arsed about that.

Cheers for that.
Still undecided it's more or less 400 mile round trip.
And is there anything I really want... Apart from everything.
Still got a couple of weeks.

Good point, I've just had a look and it's 250 odd miles for me. I think I'd be more inclined to pop down if there were a few from here to make an event within an event. But I'm not too sure at the moment whether I'm working or not on the Saturday.

That's what I was thinking
