jimdfish Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 The fish and a couple of his friends have just returnedfrom the Chatsworth show feeling as if Fagin and his booys have just pulled a tricck on us. Now let me get it straight right now, if anyone needs a drink the fish will oblige and a couple of quid I am not short but, I must say , Theivin' robbin' hrd face dgits the lot of them, £3.50 for apasty and as I the fish is no tiddler agoodly amount amount of sustenance is needed for general tick over. As to the ale well never doth a fish drink more freely than yours trulybut at £3.00 apint for the thinnest of bitters I was forced to walk around the food and drink stand all day recieving the generosity of charitable stall holders all day. never has the fish drank such mxed bag ( toffe vodka. elderflower wine ) and even had to endure a half hour tutored wine tasting session, the tutor having the gaul to suggest that this fish should spit not swallow(not in a million years). Now ten quid for entrance fee is a bit steep and my complaint is this, they have a captive audience, do they have to be so expensive. I know they have fees to pay and a living to make but after the godly sum I expended today I fully feel that i should feel light of head rather than wallet. JimDfish P.S the skydivers were poo!!

SNAKEBITE Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 I LOVE game and country shows but generally find the entrance fees quite high. The only thing is that at the game shows I find I can save the entrance fees on the money saved on the items bought so all is not lost. Plus I always drive so I save money on the beer tent!
