Well I enjoyed it, but it wasn't a patch on last years I don't think, got a copy of the OSG and a copy of connections, some interesting reading, missed the T shirt and Bacon Sarnie, still a stop at Maccy Dee for breakfast sorted the food out. Nice to have met you Gaz.

Seemed to be more than last year, for what was on the leaflet I don't think I got to see all that seemed to be advertised unless I missed a lot of them. Had some good productive conversations at some stands that were a great benefit. The seminars didn't interest me this year though.

I didn't think it was as good as last year. Didn't seem to be as many competitions (I like competitions ha)

Got lots of freebies though so that was good. Was surprised not to see wiha

N Klein tools either, disappointing as I wanted something, not telling you will have to guess, Anthonybragg and Camerabloke already know so they are out.

Klein was there

coventry is OK for all you southerners. no use to us up here. 5 gallons of diesel there and back, £30 better spent on beer.

Was that part of supper rod and CEF? Cuz if that's what you mean they never had what I wanted.

Wish there'd do one near me, this one's still 1 1/2 away. I'd get a nose bleed driving north past Banbury.

Went to the one at the racecourse once. Spent 2 hrs stuck on the M25. Did think about going to the Exeter one, sort combing it with a mini break, but her indoors got wind of it.

I reckon you should all petition for one in Oxford, then on the way home you enlighten yourselves in the seat of learning & culture.

The Coventry one is as far for us.

 

[telectrix]

coventry for me is best part of 100 miles.

 

[netblindpaul]

It's 150+ for us and we still go!
