Lol...do you remember the lad who worked for him...Dennis? Don't remember a Dennis but I do remember seeing a few people around the kennels, yes, his wife Olwyn a blonde woman and as you say a bit younger than him, she is still alive and kicking.

Greenhunter Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 We're going on the Sunday but not for the same reasons I used to go for. ie actually buying shooting gear and guns. Very little point going to do that as there are so few actual gun stalls/makers represented these days its almost impossible to get a bargain and the choice is just not there anymore. Nearly spent the whole day on Gunmakers Row most years but these days we watch the displays and look at clothing stalls(the wife seems to enjoy it much more : ( ) GH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie-fox Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 we went for a lot of years,but the last few years it as gone down hill.wont go again. Same for me, used to book the same weekend every year off work and make a proper weekend of it... Not been for the last 2 years.. Just not worth it.

MITCHF Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Every year in Sept, the same question, every the luddite's come out force. If you've never been and you enjoy country sports, get down there. We camp for the weekend, great atmosphere. These show's need to evolve to attract a wider audience. Guns, clays, rifles, air rifles, rods, gun dogs, hounds, ferrets, birds of prey, displays, clothing, food , drink & entertainment. We meet loads of friends and have a laugh, I enjoy it for what it is, not was or will be 😉👍🏻 If we stopped going and it folded it would be another self inflicted nail in the coffin , IMO 😳 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenlivet Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) Had a great day, better than the game fair. Loved the music stages around the ground, had a pint watching the blues band this afternoon. Great gunmakers row and some nice bespoke leather goods stands. Best clay layout I've seen, 3 pools stands! Unfortunately Mr G and gun not communicating today so the sporting layout escaped relatively unscathed 😖😖 Edited September 17, 2016 by Glenlivet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougy Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) I left a banana skin behind. . I was not originally going but a last minute change of mind occurred on Thursday while out shooting. I was not disappointed with me expectations. I take in all the comments regarding the banter, meets with like minded folk etc but I see it quickly drifting down the river of self destruction.
