I am a bit 50/50 about it. I actually liked Stoneleigh. Ok it was rambling but it seemed to have more character and it felt more spacious in a way. Never had to queue to get in before and Friday was busier than I was expecting. I didnt get there sat til midday and was smoother to get in.

Its more planned in term of layout but some of the passges were a squeeze and crushed at times. Another hall would have alleviated the compression. It seemed smaller than Stoneleigh. Normally I do 2 days at Stoneleigh. 1 is not enough and 2 allows me to mop up and revisit. I felt I covered it in a day and I only had half a day today.

Sunday tends to go quite in the afternoon.

Looked like not enough stock was taken to the show and a lot of stands were bemoaning having to lug display and stock to the stands. Stoneleigh seemed to allow delivery closer to the stand. The 50 cal club certainly seemed to have longer arms on Friday.

I think the BSS os one of the better shows for sure.
