kennyboy30 Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 I am not paying 35 quid to go to the game fair on Friday it's getting to be a tad expensive and a bit of a rip off putting it up every year kenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotslad Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Does anyone know wot the traffic/parking will likely be like?? I have heard at previous fairs of standing traffic for miles as sometimes badly organised routes. Also has it been as wet there as everywhere else this week? Are the parking areas fairly dry or will they cut up badly. Possibky coming down in the van as far cheaper to run than pick up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibky coming down in the van as far cheaper to run than pick up I have been to the last two CLA game fairs & the traffic & parking organising has been fantastic, I would be going to this years show but it's a tad to far to travel.

scotslad Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Cheers thats good to hear, heard a few horro stories in the past. It does look fairly well connected to main roads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocker boy Posted July 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 I should imagine that with 130,000 + people visiting over 3 days there maybe traffic delays. Part and parcel I'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hesstondriver Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 heading up on sunday yes it is not cheap, however compare it to the Grand Prix - well over £150 a ticket for a day (some may say less others more entertainment) - that's why we are individuals we will be taking camping stove frying pan & bacon etc for breakfast when we get there and im happy to carry a rucksack of sandwiches and picnic stuff to avoid the catering outlets. there are ways in which to save a £ here and there and not feel totally ripped off.

bear-uk Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Anyone heard how wet the site is ? Seeing as its rained here every day for about a week it certainly won't be dry going. Having said that I dont think there will be any problems. Its looking not to bad for the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what, that is the one thing I had forgotten about. Last time I went was Highclere having not been for ages, and the use of young women as 'man bait' had gone up ten fold in that time.

Most football games will be around 35 quid now for 90 mins, pictures not cheap either. U don't get much for 35 quid really esp not a whole days entertainment For a once a year event it's not that bad, not like ur going every week.

But it's the same every year, the only thing that change are the prices, they want to charge you to get in then want to try and rob you of what little you have left once you're in, Ill give it a miss and go stalking instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
