We were invited to go along the day the deposit was to be paid. There didn't seem much point.
I don't know how much involvement other clubs had in choosing the venue, dates etc, but we were not consulted until everything was set.
Hardly a 'combined' effort.

The date is one of the worst ever suggested for a meeting bang in the middle of when many will be on holiday, it WILL effect numbers and could decrease attendance at other shows near the dates. Most efected will be those booking tables and many may leave it late before booking to see which shows are going to have maximum attendance.

So from what i can gather MRAC, WMRS and IHS arent particularly involved leaving who? PRAS, BRAS and ERAC?

How much support has this show got? The initial outlay is rather significant, is this definitely going ahead?

I agree a bit more communication would not have been a bad idea.

Dude, this whole situation seems so unfair. The Show at Kidderminster is fantastic and brilliantly organised. Also I went to quite a few Shows this year and the venue at Kiddy was fantastic.

If there was more communication between organizations then perhaps our Hobby could be more united than having a big wedge stuck in the middle.

I of course will support all the reptile shows that I can. But for me it is always better the devil you know.

Bit odd not being on a Sunday though, makes it tricky for people who work.

Ok, look at it another way. This could be the 'big' one, the one that may put the UK on the Hamm/Houten map?
