wingnut Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Most of our family will be there on monday, even some none shooters just to see what it is all about, hopefully the weather will hold out. Been a few times now and have always enjoyed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam1 Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 I must admit it's quite dissapointing, I only live a couple of miles from it so would usually go purley because its on my doorstep, as it happens i'm working this year so cant make it but i'll lose no sleep about it. If I had to travel any distance though i'd give it a miss and try find a proper gamefair as i find Selby just a Sunday market with a bit more going on. It has gone downhill year by year, a lot of the stall holders used to stop in my local pub and I got to know them but sadly they all dropped off year by year as pitch prices went up and attendences went down, nowadays its quite evident when you're there that many of the visitors are just people from local areas out for the day to have a look at something different, the only good thing I can draw from that is just maybe one or two may find a genuine intrest in one form or another of country persuit. Sorry I'm guessing thats not what you wanted to hear but I hope its sf some use to you. Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianstaley Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Selby Game fair more like Selby sunday market, wot a load of rubbish, cost me 15 quid to get in wifes over 60 , guns no, a couple of **** air guns, i think the gun dog people had the best of it, will I go againe nope, cost too much, 3,50 for a sausage bun, £4.50 for a hog roast bun??? lots of clothing and nobody wants to be helpfull. the only one i felt was any help as a possable punter was the lady at the real leather tent, she at least gave a good account of what they did, hpow they did it and if i wanted something custome made no problems and to be honest i though 150 quid for a solid leather slip a bargain. ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
